I$$d like to ask an expert

In java please

Determine the number of syllables in a sentence with an arbitrary number of words.

Here are some rules you are required to use for determining the number of syllables in a word. There are other more complicated cases not described in the $4$steps below. Ignore those cases for this assignment.

Step$1)$Do $.$toUpperCase$()$or $.$toLowerCase$()$to the input at the beginning so you have less comparisons

Step $2)$Count the number of vowels including y $($a$,$e$,$i$,$o $,$u$,$y$)$

Step $3)$Subtract $1$for every instance of two vowels being next to each other.

Step $4)$Subtract $1$if there's a vowel at the end of the word $($EXCEPT Y$).$

For example the word feline is $2$syllables$.$

We determine that by taking the number of vowels $(3),$we check for any vowels next to each other $($none$),$then we see if there are any vowels at the end of the word $(1).$The syllable count $3-1$or $2.$

Example

Input

I am tired

Output

$4$

Thank you

This is my current code

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main $\{$

$$ public static void main$($String$[]$args$)\{$

$$ Scanner scnr $=$new Scanner$($System$.$in$)$;

$$ String sentence $="$I am tired";

$$ int totalSyllables $=$countSyllablesInSentence$($sentence$)$;

$$ System.out.println$($totalSyllables$)$;

$\}$

$$ public static int countSyllablesInSentence$($String sentence$)\{$

$//$Convert the entire sentence to lowercase to reduce comparisons

$$ sentence $=$sentence$.$toLowerCase$()$;

$$ String$[]$words $=$sentence$.$split$("\backslash \backslash$s$+")$; $//$Split the sentence into words

$$ int totalSyllables $=0$;

$$ for $($String word : words$)\{$

$$ totalSyllables $+=$countSyllablesInWord$($word$)$;

$\}$

$$ return totalSyllables;

$\}$

$$ public static int countSyllablesInWord$($String word$)\{$

$//$Define vowels

$$ String vowels $="$aeiouy$"$;

$$ int syllableCount $=0$;

$$ boolean lastCharWasVowel $=$false;

$//$Special case for one$-$letter words

$$ if $($word$.$length$()==1$&& vowels.indexOf$($word$.$charAt$(0))>=0)\{$

$$ return $1$;

$\}$

$$ for $($int i $=0$; i $<$word$.$length$()$; i$++)\{$

$$ char currentChar $=$word$.$charAt$($i$)$;

$$ if $($vowels$.$indexOf$($currentChar$)>=0)\{$

$//$Count the first vowel or a non$-$consecutive vowel

$$ if $($i $==0||!$lastCharWasVowel$)\{$

$$ syllableCount$++$;

$\}$

$$ lastCharWasVowel $=$true;

$\}$else $\{$

$$ lastCharWasVowel $=$false;

$\}$

$\}$

$//$Handle silent $\text{'}$e$\text{'}($e$.$g$.,$in words like "made" or "taste"$)$

$$ if $($word$.$endsWith$("$e$")$&& syllableCount $>1$&& vowels.indexOf$($word$.$charAt$($word$.$length$()-2))<0)\{$

$$ syllableCount$--$;

$\}$

$//$Ensure at least $1$syllable for any word

$$ return Math.max$($syllableCount$,1)$;

$\}$

$\}$

And these are the things I$\text{'}$m getting wrong
