​We should stop pretending that R isn’t a vowel.

Let’s be real, it always has been a vowel. T, d, g, p, f, n, m, those are real consonants. R can flow right off of those (unlike real consonants) because it’s a vowel. You can’t pronounce “Bgtd” without adding vowel sounds between each letter, but you can easily pronounce “Brgrtrd”, because r is a vowel.

Wake up, people!
