English Word without Vowel(s)?

Couldn't find the link to post.........think this is an extended answer

The people who created English word without vowel (s) shied away from another word, "shy". Funny, isn't it?

    English does not allow for words without vowels. The word "rhythm," fpr example, uses "y" as a vowel. We know this because it has a short "i" sound.

    If you want to include technical words, then perhaps "nth" (as in the nth power) would qualify.

    Best wishes!

    Try "nth" as in "to the nth degree".
