CIDE DICTIONARY

Vowel, n. [F. voyelle, or an OF. form without y, L. vocalis (sc. littera), from vocalis sounding, from vox, vocis, a voice, sound. See Vocal.].

A vocal, or sometimes a whispered, sound modified by resonance in the oral passage, the peculiar resonance in each case giving to each several vowel its distinctive character or quality as a sound of speech; -- distinguished from a consonant in that the latter, whether made with or without vocality, derives its character in every case from some kind of obstructive action by the mouth organs. Also, a letter or character which represents such a sound. See Guide to Pronunciation, 1913 Webster]

" In the English language, the written vowels are a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes w and y. The spoken vowels are much more numerous." [1913 Webster]

Close vowel. See under Close, a. -- Vowel point. See under Point, n.

Vowel, a.

Of or pertaining to a vowel; vocal. [1913 Webster]
