I know in that in English that each word would be separate where the program is printing the all of the numbers merged together. Is this the actual functionality in Japanese?

Since the code might be useful in many places it might be better of the translation code as in a class.

Use of Vertical Space
Generally code is easier to read and maintain when only one value is on a line. This would apply to the initialization of the vectors and the switch statement in the function is_vowel(). For maintenance reasons it is much easier to insert a line where it needs to be than it is to add a value to a comma separated list.

is_vowel function
There would be less code and the performance might be better if the vowels were in a std::map rather than a switch statement.

Assert
Assert statements are generally used for debugging purposes and terminate the program. Assert statements may be removed when the code is compiled without debugging as well. I don't expect to see asserts in production level code because it implies that the code is not yet debugged.

is_vowel function

This portion of the answer has been modified to remove the statement that there might be a performance improvement using std::map. If map used a simple index into an array that might be true, however it is not a simple index into an array.
