Output i am getting with above query is :- ``` cllo cell guitr gutar gitar voln vilin ``` Desired output : ``` cll gtr vln ```

Although Yaakov's reg-ex solution is much better in terms of elegancy and efficiency, you can use `Where` for the sake of learning:

```
string[] strArray = new string[] { "cello", "guitar", "violin" };
var vowels = new HashSet<char>("aeiou"); // or: { 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u' };

var vNovowels2 = from vitem in strArray
                 select new string(vitem.Where(c => !vowels.Contains(c)).ToArray());

foreach (var item in vNovowels2)
{
    Console.WriteLine(item);
}
```
