Is the Y in word carry a vowel?

No, the "Y" in the word "carry" is not a vowel. It's a consonant.

Here's why:

* Sound: The "Y" in "carry" makes a consonant sound, like the "y" in "yellow" or "yes".

* Position: "Y" can act as a vowel at the end of a word or syllable (like in "happy" or "sky"). However, in "carry," it's in the middle of the word and acts as a consonant.
