What words have consonants in them?

This is a bit of a trick question!

All words have consonants in them, except for words that are made up of only vowels.

Here's why:

* Consonants are sounds made by partially or fully blocking airflow in your mouth.

* Vowels are sounds made with your mouth open, allowing air to flow freely.

For example:

* "Cat" has the consonants "c" and "t".

* "Apple" has the consonants "p" and "l".

* "A" is a word that only has a vowel.

Let me know if you have any other language questions!
