question: private void parseFirstConsonant ( ) { Iterator iter = alFirstConsonants . iterator ( ) ; while ( iter . hasNext ( ) ) { String strFirstCon = ( String ) iter . next ( ) ; if ( strSyllable . startsWith ( strFirstCon , iCurPos ) ) { strFirstConsonant = strFirstCon ; iCurPos += strFirstCon . length ( ) ; return ; } } strFirstConsonant = ZERO ; }
target:  Parses the first consonant.
