    Y

    Do you consider Y a vowel or a consonant? Don't even think about saying it's one or the other, depending on the context. YOU MUST PICK ONE

    It's one or the other, depending on how it's pronounced in that particular word.

    And in the dutch language it's not used as frequently as in english, so I have no problem thinking of it as a vowel.

    Y...
    Y is whatever it feels like.

    Y is such a rebel.

    It's a terrible letter and should be removed.

    Who cares? Once we convert to the metric alphabet it'll get thrown in with all the other trash letters.

    Actually, upsilon would be a more appropriate replacement since when you transliterate, at least from Attic Greek, the upsilon often becomes a y.
