My solution wasn't fancy - split into individual words, conditional statement to identify if a word started with a vowel, remove vowels, then concatenate back together.  Probably a faster way, but this made sense to me.

Will use the \B in the future though which will be a quicker way then using the left and right functions, but did not know about it before I saw other peoples solution in this thread, so I will leave it as I solved it 🙂

I learned about this regex function from @MarqueeCrew, thank you!

 

Also, your article was really insightful.
