Techinaccly you are both wrong and I am right. Being ****y until someone sneaks up behind me and pushes me off the throne.

Wait... You said I was wrong, and I have the same oppinion as you (when refering to English, as Y is a vowel in the Danish language), which means you said you were wrong. Consider youself pushed.

Again, for the random:
A vowel is an open sound (a, e, i, o, u) that makes a sound without the help of other letters.
A consonant is a closed sound that needs another letter for making the sound. (De = D) Y is such a sound, but it takes the place as a vowel, when there is no vowel in a word.
W can also be a phonetic vowel, as it has an open sound (wet).

Yes Cenere is right in words with no vowels y takes place as a vowel, Example:my,cry,by,rhythm ect.Y does take place as a vowel when there are no other vowels.
