but humming counts as singing, doesn’t it? which means that you COULD sing without vowels
Without vowels there'd be no singing

and birds also don’t have official vowels. I’m starting to see the flaws in my thought :)

Yea, some voiced consonants like L, M, N, R and maybe Y would work fine for singing, I think. Like if we only had words like “Hm”, or “Lt” (pronounced similar to “ult”), you could sing it fine.

I mean those are already halfway to vowels. In Japanese, “N” can be it’s own syllable.

No, I would not consider humming singing
bdot@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
well - Wikipedia seems to disagree, and says “common definitions include “the utterance of words or sounds in tuneful succession””
and that was just the first place i looked.

I feel like this is a bit like saying “If cars didn’t have wheels, there would be no Formula 1”.
