    fly, why, try, my...

    The only one that I can think of that doesn't have the 'y' as a vowel is this word:

    Nth

    I believe the word means 'infinite'.

    Nope, not infinite. It means to a certain number. The number being N.

    Well, it never actually mentioned infinite. But, it does say the hightest, as in the highest of a series of numbers. If you made n=∞ then it would mean infinite. Although, the phrase to nth degree does often seem to signify infinite.

    I see what you mean, invert. anyway, it doesn't have a vowel therefore it defies the English language!
