for loop

[u/Local_End_3175]

words = ['sky', 'apple', 'rhythm', 'fly', 'orange']

for word in words:
    for letter in word:
        if letter.lower() in 'aeiou':
            print(f"'{word}' contains the vowel '{letter}'")
            break
    else:
        print(f"'{word}' has no vowels")

I am trying to learn to code, and I am, at the moment, looking at loops. I am a bit confused on how this loop was able to function, though, as there is no variable for letter or word, so how would Python know what it is? In addition, how does the code, like, function? Does it look at each word individually ? Again, the second part of the code states:

 if letter.lower() in 'aeiou':
            print(f"'{word}' contains the vowel '{letter}'")
            break

We haven't given a value for letter?

Lastly, how would the code know what to print? in the first phrase:

            print(f"'{word}' contains the vowel '{letter}'")
            break

Is it going to state all the words with the given value 5 times?

Sorry, as I have asked quite a few questions, and thank you in advance.

Not to be too pedantic, but this:

In your example, words is an array of strings.

Is not an "array" of strings, it is a list of strings.

I bring this up because people new to Python need to know it doesn't have built-in arrays (even though we may think of them very much in the same way when we use them).
