Task
Regex character class to match/find/search all unicode latin vowels or consonants, accented too

If regex engine used in your application supports unicode categories, and the working file's format is standard UTF-8 (all characters are stored with 2 numbers, i.e. 2 code points), than you can use the next expression: "latin vowel/consonant, followed by 0 or more combining marks (diacritics)":
[AEIOUaeiou]\p{M}* [B-DF-HJ-NP-TV-Zb-df-hj-np-tv-z]\p{M}*.
Consonants by character class subtraction: [\p{L}-[AEIOUaeiuo]]\p{M}*
