English Sentence Structure - Lesson 6 ex. 6

Articles:  a and an

When  do I use the article a in English?

I use a before any word that is sigular and that starts with a consonant.

example:  a book,  a car,  a house  etc...

I use an in words that start with vowels

examples:  an apple, an elephant  etc..       

I can also use an before   "hour"   because the "h" is silent and when I say hour I don´t pronounce the consoant h but instead the o.   (our)
