Ah, now I see you meant "done by dropping vowels ONLY". For a moment there I thought that either the first or second e didn't count, and since I've already had some situations where I didn't quite get the official English phonetics (what qualifies as a vowel, what as a diphthong and what as a consonant), I thought this may be a good time to gain some insight into the matter.
