Dallman Ross skribis:

Let's check for those with nine consonants in a row:

 11:34pm [~/Mail] 759[0]> egrep '[bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz]{9}'
/usr/share/dict/words
Amblyrhynchus
glycyphyllin
Oxyrrhyncha
oxyrrhynchid
pachyrhynchous

All those words are more vowelly than you assume.


 11:34pm [~/Mail] 760[0]> egrep '[bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz]{10}'
/usr/share/dict/words
Amblyrhynchus
glycyphyllin

Those too.

Y is used to represent a consonant sound (year), and the vowel and
diphthongal sounds (hymn, folly; my, pyre; satyr; myrrh); also in digraphs
(toy).
