Vowel Words
Looking for words made only from vowels? This page lists words formed entirely from A, E, I, O and U, from short two-letter words to the six-letter EUOUAE. Tap any word to view its available definitions.
Words Made Only From Vowels
These words come from the site's international English Scrabble list.
Are There Words With Only Vowels?
Yes, although they are unusual. Most English words combine vowel and consonant letters, but dictionaries also contain interjections, borrowed words and specialized terms written entirely with vowels. EUOUAE is the longest entry in this list at six letters.
Some vowel-only words will be unfamiliar in everyday English. That does not automatically make them playable in every word game, because each game and region can use a different dictionary.
Does Y Count as a Vowel?
Y can represent a vowel sound in words such as MYTH and RHYTHM, but this page uses a simple spelling-based definition. Here, a vowel-only word contains only the five conventional vowel letters A, E, I, O and U. Words containing Y are therefore excluded from this particular list.
Vowel Words in Scrabble
The words shown here come from the international English Scrabble word list used by the site. North American Scrabble uses a different dictionary, so a word accepted internationally may not be playable in a US or Canadian game. Tap a word to inspect its definition, and check the dictionary used by your game before relying on it.
Stuck With Too Many Vowels?
A vowel-heavy rack can limit your options, particularly when there are few useful consonants already on the board. A short vowel-only word may help you use awkward tiles, but it is not your only option. Enter all your letters into Scrabble Solver and select the dictionary used by your game to find every available combination.
For the opposite spelling pattern, explore our Consonant Words page. If you need compact plays for a crowded board, the Two Letter Words guide is another useful place to look.
