Anil, welcome to the Forums!

Any word that has the word y in it has a vowel because the reason that why is sometimes a vowel is for words that use y instead of a e i o or u. like fry,by or my etc....

Hi,

if you consider "nth" to be a word containing no vowels (regardless of its pronunciation), then we should admit that such acronyms as CD, BBC, RN, etc fall into the category as well.

THE WORD RYTHUM IS CONSIDERED A VOWEL.  MY DAUGHTER'S TEACHER ASKED THE CLASS TO FIND WORDS WITH NO VOWELS FOR POINTS AND WHEN MY DAUGHTER SUBMITTED THE WORD "RYTHUM" THE TEACHER SAID THE Y SOUNDS LIKE "I" SO SHE ONLY GOT 5 POINTS INSTEAD OF 100.  SHE NEEDS WORDS WITH NO VOWELS, AND NO Y'S THAT SOUND LIKE A VOWEL.

ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW ANY?????????????
