I used to think that all words had at least one vowel, but I've noticed there are many utterances that are accepted as words that have no vowels. Can you think of no-vowel words to fill in the blanks in the following sentences?
1. _ _ _ _ _ _ , that's another one you got wrong.
2. _ _ _ it's cold outside.
3. Careful, that "_ _ _ _ " we heard could mean a bear is outside our tent.
4. _ _ _ , I'll have to think about that.
5. _ _ _ , this soup is good.
6. _ _ _ _ , wait til you hear this!
7. _ _ _ , be quiet as mice.
