What word uses W as a vowel?

This is a bit of a trick question! The letter "W" is typically considered a consonant, not a vowel.

However, there are some cases where "W" can act as a vowel:

* In some dialects: In some dialects of English, "W" can act as a vowel, such as in the word "water" pronounced with a "wah" sound.

* In other languages: In certain languages like Welsh, "W" is a vowel.

* In certain words: There are words like "wow" where "W" is the only vowel sound.
