Re: GM Challenge

I was wondering about that but (as I'm not an english teacher) I think it should be "a" since you only put "an" before a word that begins with a vowel?

i always thought it was used for words with a vowel sound, like "an honest opinion", "an hour", "an STD"...lol.

isn't Montana Bob an english teacher? let's ask him.

Re: GM Challenge

English?? Is you kiddn? Physical Education teacher with another degree in Physical Geography/Landform Analysis.

I before E except after C........and "an" before a vowel starting word unless the vowel is silent, like "hour." "An hour before kickoff." That's all I know. :shock:

Re: GM Challenge

Looks like arrow was right

An before vowel sounds, a before consonant sounds.

178. Ordinarily an is used before vowel sounds, and a before consonant sounds. Remember that a vowel sound does not necessarily mean beginning with a vowel, nor does consonant sound mean beginning with a consonant, because English spelling does not coincide closely with the sound of words. Examples: "a house," "an orange," "a European," "an honor," "a yelling crowd."
An with consonant sounds.

179. Many writers use an before h, even when not silent, when the word is not accented on the first syllable.

An historian, such as we have been attempting to describe, would indeed be an intellectual prodigy.—Macaulay.

The Persians were an heroic people like the Greeks.—Brewer.

He [Rip] evinced an hereditary disposition to attend to anything else but his business.—Irving.

An habitual submission of the understanding to mere events and images.—Coleridge.

An hereditary tenure of these offices.—Thomas Jefferson.

LINK - thanks google

You know what, my wife's best friend's mom is an English teacher now Principal, I will email her and see what her official verdict is.

Update - Should be "an" - changed the grapic. Thanks Arrow!
