Cities?

Are we using y as vowel?

If so....

LSHS (9 letters)

I think you're right Cherrytree , although Woodmouse will have to confirm.
As far as I know, AEIOU are the vowels.

Not using y as a vowel. sorry
CTS
Clue: saucy Latin word smile

Cities good though.

VC (5 letters)

So we still have to work out CTS (6)
LSHS (9, with a y)
VC (5)

any more clues, Woodmouse?

Well, you never stop learning! All my life I had thought "Y" was a consonant but, before writing anything on this post, I thought I'd check the situation.

Apparently, it is both a vowel and a consonant - known as a semi-vowel.

Are we going to treat it as a consonant on this thread?
