gwnn Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 What is your opinion on BBF posters with few or no vowels in their usernames? I think they are remarkably intelligent and witty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherdanno Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I especially like those with neither vowels nor consonants. But no vowels is an ok second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OleBerg Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 The Danish alphabet has nine vowels: The wellknown: A, E, I, O, U, Y and three that might en up funny on your screen: Æ, Ø, Å the first is an A and an E put together, with the right horisontal line of the A and the left horisontal line of the E shared. It's sound is like the E in "Egg" or the EA in "bread". (Bread and Egg are originally danish words, brought to you, when the Vikings conquerred half of England around year 1000.) The second is an O with a line through, much like some mathematical symbol, justy with the line at the diagonal. Watch some old Pink Panter movies, where Peter Sellers uses the sound all the time. The last is simply an A with a small circle above. The sound is like OA in the word "Goal". I have no opinion on the number of vowels in usernames.

helene_t Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 The Danish alphabet has nine vowels: I think some 20+ if you count all the different ways each wovel can be pronounced. The e alone is 7 different vowels, though some of them overlap with other vowels. A Æ U Å Æ Å Æ Ø I Æ Å means "I went eating on an island in the river" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
