Usually a u pronounced as if f the word begins with a y (a semivowel), usual, union, university (mostly borrowed from Latin or French) it is treatzed as if it were a consonant: hence a university (but sometimes thee (as if it were a vowel) university.

Words (mostly form the Germanic side of the language) that have the sharp u as in under, underwear, ulcer, udder ugliness are treated like a vowel.

a Universal RL
U is not a vowel here. It's a consonant

[sophie hannon]

so u is an exception sometimes?
