Vowels are speech sounds made with an open mouth, represented by the letters a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y. Consonants are sounds made by restricting air flow through closing the lips or touching the teeth with the tongue, represented by all other letters except for sometimes y. Diphthongs are vowel sounds where the tongue moves between two vowel positions to make two vowel sounds.
