In the English language, a consonant is any letter that is not a vowel. In other words, not a, e, i o, or u. Sometimes y is considered a vowel, but typically it is considered a consonant.. There are 21 consonants in the english language.

There are two kinds of letters - vowels, which are a,e,i,o,u and sometimes y, and everything else, which is a consonant. When you double the final consonant, you double the last consonant in the word. For example, if you are changing the word 'final' to the adverb, you double the final consonant, which is l, and it becomes 'finally'. Which is the correct spelling for that word.

A speech sound in which the breath is at least partly obstructed, and which to form a syllable must be combined with a vowel.
