Dear Spoken36. Thank you for this passage. You placed it into a wrong place. User_talk: is where *others* write to you.
So at your discriminant move this info either into [[User:Spoken36]] or (possibly better) somewhere in Grammar: or Theology: namespace. Also we should suggest where to add links to your article from other parts of the site, for the readers to see your article. If you doubt where to add links, ask me. --[[User:Victor Porton|Victor Porton]] ([[User talk:Victor Porton|talk]]) 18:19, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

The ancient Hebrew language is itself very good evidence that the notion of vowels is a bogus idea as applied to languages that predate the modern languages. All of the common European languages for example postdate the creation of vowels (by Masoretes less than 1500 years ago) as a separate group of phonology in contrast to the consonants. Therefore, our ingrained habit is to perceive vowels and consonants as necessary components of language. But that perception is caused by the development of the languages in a modern vowel/consonant paradigm.
