Vowels > Consonants

[Bearsy]

Vowels make consonants their bitches.

You cant even say a consonant without using vowel sounds.

That's fuckin pimpin.

like B, you have to say Bee or whatever.
O straight up, no consonants.
U is straight letter pimpin.

You cant even say a consonant without using vowel sounds.Try making a prolonged s-sound. There's your consonant without a vowel.

Close your mouth and voice. There's your voiced m without a vowel.

Also, don't end-voice your non-fricative consonants. Done.

Em... what's your point though? Letters have names and Indo-European languages have standard syllables with vowel nucleus. So it is to be expected that the consonant sounds denoted by the letter are coupled with a vowel in the name of the letter.

This thread makes no sense.

Also how often do you use letter names in daily conversation? Almost never. So your point is moot.

Vowels have always been better than consonants. Why else do you think they charge for them in Wheel of Fortune?

That is the ugliest IPA transcription I have ever seen. And I thought Georgian had large consonant clusters.

It's senseless banter, why does it matter? I felt like saying random shit. I wasn't trying to start up a debate about linguistics or anything.

:roll:

Can't a person just say that vowels are infinitely more badass than consonants without someone else ruining their fun?
