i know a is the correct one, what I am saying is that when u use an when the first letter start with h. It looks OK, for example an house, doesn't look wrong or an horse

No bro u still dont get it..
Thats what I'm trying to tell u.
Yorubas pronounce HOUSE as OUSE.
and pronounce HORSE as ORHSE.
they omit the H which is a consonant sound.(which is not right)
Thats why they always get it wrong.

When u omit the H in "house"During pronunciation u are left with O, which is a vowel sound. Thats why they always get it wrong.

If u want to get it right , dont forget the 5 vowels A. E .I .O. U, wheneva u see them first in a word, then u can use "An"

Potopoto pig take your L in peace.
You don't even know what you are talking about. H words do take 'an' sometimes, not the general rule you were taught in your pigsty schools.
You don't even know that 'I' should always be written in capital letters.
So much for an educated pig!

Lmao..U are a disgrace, grin
Keep defending Ur stupidity and ignorance. grin
Illiterate brown roofer claiming sophistication.
Yet no brains. grin

i know we use an for vowel and a for consonant, I have know that since my primary school days, what I am saying is that it looks OK to the mouth that is why people make the error, unlike when u use a for vowel sound it sound odd. Let say a orange compared to an horse which sounds better

I have told u why it's looks OK in the mouth.
(Only for Yorubas) because they omit the H during pronounce , otherwise if u call that H u will notice "A" sound better.

A harmful
An harmful.
Pronounce them with H ,u will see A is far better in d mouTh

Oh stop arguing, An is Wong to be used before consonant sounds.
If my correction is wrong people would like it.
U can also use google to help urslef

I understand u want to be right but understand we learn everyday. Yes u are correct absolutely for saying that u don't use an before consonants but there is an omission for that rule... If the consonant is pronounced as a vowel, u can use 'an'... Dat is it might start with a consonant letter but it is pronounced as a vowel eg harmless is transcribed as /ha:mles/ , so an harmless is correct

Examples
How to give yourself an harmless electric shock

Google is your friend and please don't take it personal like u did the others who tried to correct you, have a nice day!

I don't need to check google is a pity im arguing with u on this nursery school issue.
I feel embarrassed seriously..

The problem is from Yoruba way of pronunciation. Because they omit H during pronunciation which is wrong.

However The are few words where u can use an before consonants and one of those few words I'm not even sure they are up to 10 words..
2 of them are HONOUR and HEIR .. "An honour" " "an heir".. because the H is in those 2words are silent .

Pls English is the subject I always score highest right from my primary.. and I'm DEAD SURE over this issue
