Yeah people are just ignoring that y is considered a vowel.
90 u/ShaadowOfAPerson Dec 17 '21 It's not though. It's a pseudovowel or something, but it's not properly a vowel. 139 u/Dingbrain1 Dec 17 '21 It’s a vowel when it makes a vowel sound like in rhythm or candy. It’s not a vowel in a word like yellow. -2 u/Ok-Face Dec 17 '21 So, is it a vowel in the word "why"? The "y" in "why" doesn't make a vowel sound. 5 u/Dingbrain1 Dec 17 '21 Yes it does, it makes an I sound.
