Jim and David,

>  m/^[aeiouy]+$/i

I tried your suggestions but it still gives the same result:

        my $string = 'Off The Menu';

        my @words = split(/ /, $string);
                my @new_words;
                foreach my $word (@words) {
                        if ((length $word >= 3 and length $word <= 4) and ! 
($word =~ m/^[aeiouy]+$/i or $word =~ m/^[bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz]+$/i)) {
                                $word = uc($word);
                        }
                        push @new_words, $word;
                }
                $string = "@new_words";

        print $string . "\n";

gives me "OFF THE MENU".
