Is the y is word cody a vowel?

The letter "y" in the word "cody" is a consonant.

Here's why:

* Vowels: The vowels in the English alphabet are A, E, I, O, and U.

* Consonants: All other letters are consonants.

While "y" can sometimes act as a vowel (like in "my" or "fly"), in the word "cody" it is making the "c" sound, which is a consonant sound.
