Iota (Ι, ι) is the ninth letter of the Greek alphabet, corresponding to the English letter 'I' and representing a short 'i' sound, also known as the smallest Greek letter, from which the English word "jot" (meaning a tiny amount) is derived.
Iota (/aɪˈoʊtə/; /ˈjota/, uppercase Ι, lowercase ι; Greek: ιώτα) is the ninth letter of the Greek alphabet. It was derived from the Phoenician letter Yodh.
The Greek alphabet has 24 letters, from Alpha (Α, α) to Omega (Ω, ω), used for writing Greek and in various fields like math and science, featuring uppercase and lowercase forms, with letters like Beta (Β, β), Gamma (Γ, γ), Delta (Δ, δ), Pi (Π, π), Sigma (Σ, σ/ς), and Psi (Ψ, ψ) being common examples.
The vowels are α, ε, η, ι, ο, ω, υ.
Zeta has the numerical value 7 rather than 6 because the letter digamma (ϝ, also called 'stigma' as a Greek numeral) was originally in the sixth position in the alphabet.
There are a few seven-letter words in the dictionary that have all five vowels — eulogia, miaoued, suoidea, etc. — but the only one that could be considered common is “sequoia,” the name for a tree that grows in the Sierra Nevada.

R-colored vowels are exceedingly rare, occurring in less than one percent of all languages. However, they occur in two of the most widely spoken languages: North American English and Mandarin Chinese. In North American English, they are found in words such as dollar, butter, third, color, and nurse.
There are also numerous vowelless interjections and onomatopoeia found more or less frequently, including brr or brrr, bzzt, grrr, hm, hmm, mm, mmm, mhmm, sksksksk, pfft, pht, phpht, psst, sh, shh, zzz. Many of these words feature continuant consonants, which make up for the lack of vowels.
