The Yoruba alphabet has 25 sounds total. Out of these, 18 are consonants. The rest are vowels.

Counting the consonants gives you: b, d, f, g, gb, j, k, l, m, n, p, r, s, sh, t, w, y. That makes 18 consonant sounds in Yoruba.

Knowing your alphabet helps you spell and pronounce correctly. Yoruba has fewer consonants than English but uses them differently.
