Output from Vowel List is unexpected

When I run this programme, the out put gives me the list of words 4 times in a new list and not the words with the vowels removed.

Here is the link to my code https://w.trhou.se/4ecuobkzr0

Please help!

This line has troubles.

 output.append(','.join(word_list).capitalize())

  1. You broke down each item in word_list to vowel_list. But now you are joining word_list which will give you whole list again.

  2. You are joining with comma this will result (if you fixed first problem) ['D,v', 'J,m,p' ...] unless this is intentional.

Fixed line

output.append(''.join(vowel_list).capitalize())

Also few things that can be improved.

readability can further be improved. (hint: utilize use of 'in')

try to come up with better solution for terminating while loop.
