Take a look at the instructions again. It wants you to find and match only vowels.

a , e , i , o , u

But you are matching all alphabets.

Just a extra note

[a-zA-Z] is more accurate for all alphabets.

Example:

'FOO|BAR'.match(/[a-m|n-z]/)
[ '|', index: 3, input: 'FOO|BAR', groups: undefined ]

That’s because | is a literal character.
