The consonant eater eats consonants from words, leaving only vowels (AEIOUY).
Can you find words to fit these empty shells?
U _ E _ I _ _ E
I _ A U _ I _ _ E
_ E _ A _ A _ E _ Y
_ E _ E _ _ A _ I O _
_ O _ _ E _ _ A _ O _ Y

Mostly answered, the first might be wrong.
U _ E _ I _ _ E
UNEDIBLE
I _ A U _ I _ _ E
INAUDIBLE
_ E _ A _ A _ E _ Y
SEPARATELY
_ E _ E _ _ A _ I O _
CELEBRATION
I think there are multiple answers to this one, other possibilities are
DESECRATION
PENETRATION
RESERVATION
_ O _ _ E _ _ A _ O _ Y
CONSERVATORY
also has other answers such as
COMPENSATORY
CONSECRATORY

$\begingroup$ Shouldn't the first one start with 'IN' and not 'UN'? my dictionary seems to indicate so. $\endgroup$ Apr 17, 2016 at 21:06

The first two words:
They seem to end in -IBLE and I came up with:
UNEDIBLE and INAUDIBLE
The third one:
This seems to be an adjective as well (-ELY):
SEPARATELY
The fourth one:
A noun ending in -ION, e.g.:
DELECTATION
And the last one:
Another adjective, ending in -ATORY, e.g.:
COMPENSATORY
COMPELLATORY
NOTE: Having found the first two words, I was hoping for the other words to be ...
U _ _ E E A _ _ E
I _ _ A _ _ I _ _ E
I _ O _ O _ O U _
