Quote
The letter y is indeed anomalous in English orthography: it represents a vowel (the vowel of high) in fly; replaced by a vowel letter in inflected forms of that same word (e.g., flies); it represents a completely different vowel (the vowel of he) in happy, where again it is replaced by a vowel letter in derivationally related words like happiness; it is part of a vowel representation in buy and Jersey and boy; but it stands for a consonant in you . . . This is a letter with no self-image and no sense of self-worth
