If the word begins with a consonant sound, "a" is used; if the word begins with a vowel sound, "-n" is appended, so "an" is used. The initial sounds of English words that begin with "h", "u", and "y" can't be determined by the inital letter alone. One has to know how to pronounce the word to choose the correct form: a hint a unit a yard an hour an umbrella an yttrium atom The rule for appending "-n" to "a" before a vowel sound allows faster speech. Without the "-n" before a vowel sound, an English speaker is going to pronounce the "a" either as a dipthong or with a trailing glottal stop. Either will slow down speech ever so slightly. </digression> Regards, Andy > I'll fix that too :-) > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
