This is what I have so far but not sure why its not working.
def disemvowel(word):
for vowels in word:
if vowels.upper() == 'A' or 'E' or 'I' or 'O' or 'U':
word.remove(vowels)
return word
word=[input("Please put in the word you like to remove vowels from\n > ")]
disemvowel(word)
print(word)

3,787 PointsOh yes ! did'nt see that ! . So yeah, in that case you need to change it back to a string before u return it.!
mourad marzouk
5,560 Pointsah ok I see, how would you do that? .join?
Akshaan Mazumdar
3,787 PointsYou can use join
or u can run another for loop to iterate through the list and concatenate all items together in a blank string

3,787 PointsHey !
You need to convert the WORD to a LIST. That is because //remove()// does not work on strings.
