Which words have a vowel in each syllable?

It's impossible to give you a definitive list of words with a vowel in each syllable, because the definition of a "syllable" is flexible.

Here's why:

* Syllable Definition: A syllable is a unit of pronunciation consisting of a single vowel sound, with or without surrounding consonants.

* Vowel Sounds: Vowel sounds are made with your mouth open, allowing air to flow freely.

* Consonants: Consonant sounds are made with your mouth partially closed, restricting airflow.

* Silent Letters: Sometimes letters are present in spelling but don't contribute to the sound of a word.

For Example:

* "Bottle" has two syllables ("bot" and "tle"). Both syllables contain a vowel sound, even though the "e" in "bottle" is silent.

* "Elephant" has three syllables ("el", "e", and "phant"). All three syllables contain a vowel sound, even though the "e" in "phant" is silent.

Finding Words with Vowels in Each Syllable:

While it's difficult to have a comprehensive list, you can find many words by following these steps:

1. Look for words with multiple syllables.

2. Check if each syllable has a vowel sound. Remember to consider silent letters.

Let me know if you have a specific word in mind, and I can help you determine if it has a vowel sound in each syllable!
