There are a few words where 'y' is the vowel. Examples include by, crypt, dry, fly, fry, cysts, flyby, gym, gypsy, lymph, lynch, my, myth, rhythm, shy, sky and many more.
Some words that start with a vowel and end in a Y are:animosityanyelectrifyenemyeveryexactlyonlyorneryuglyusury
ummm....... marry-marries
slyly, gypsy, crypt, myths
Rhythm = contains six letters and the only vowel in this word is the "y".
Words without a classic vowel A, E, I, O, or U include myth, hymn, and cyst.But here the Y is acting as a vowel. The only truly vowel-less words would be sounds such as brr and shh, and the 4-letter psst appears in many dictionaries.

Y is never a vowel It can often be found in words that have no vowels
In both of those words Y is considered a vowel. It is a consonant when it is used before a vowel at the beginning of a words or when it separates two vowels.
If we consider AY and OY as vowel pairs, many words have Y as a vowel. Unless it is making a consonant Y sound as in yet or yellow, it is a vowel. It can have a long I, short I, or long E sound.Words where Y is the only vowel include by, try, why, myth, hymn, and rhythm.
All words have to have a vowel in them. The five orthodox ones are a,e,i,o,u. However in words such as 'why' and 'sky', the 'y' can be taken to be the vowel. Y is considered a semi-vowel.
Way.
No. Y is always a consonant, not a vowel, and it cannot change actual form. However, in many words, such as "by", it represents the vowel sound.
There aren't any. Every word has a vowel or a Y in it.
The Y in fly has a long I vowel sound, as do the words sly and my.
I don't think so, if i remember correctly "y" is only a vowel when there is no actual vowel in the word. ex: my Actually, y is a vowel if it sounds like i, as in fry or puny, or in other words, at the end of a word or syllable. At the beginning, it makes the sound of y in you.
Some words that end in the vowel y and add es to form the plural are alley, journey, and key.
No, the 'y' in the word away is not a vowel, seeing not only as how the 'a' prior to it is a vowel, but the actual sound it makes when pronounced aloud. 'Y' is more commonly used as a vowel in words like:~Crypt~Fry~Gym~EyeThe letter is used as a consonant--at the beginning of a word most of the time--in words like:~Yellow~Year~YakHope this helps!
