Respect55: Lol. Gud work uhave have dia meanwhile I have made my findings and concluded that I am right.there are some words starting with a consonant but pronounced with the start of a vowel sound.there for it can only be right for u to start those words with """an"" . example is the "helicopter " or any other word that comes to your mind in relation to what am talking about. so therefore I am very right in my answers provided. period!  |

4. Either option is acceptable. "Affair" in itself indicates personal/private, but private affair is still acceptable English.
6. Either option is acceptable. In fact, option "B" is more suitable in that context.
10. Haba. This is disappointing. Obviously "A". No question yes my attention was pointed to (10),but 4&6 is what i will critically look into from your own analysis.from your point, u mean to say that both options are correct right?.let me check again.....thankssssss |

OluOlaLekan: Talking about the indefinite articles "a" and "an", words with an initial "h" CANNOT take on both articles. The determinant is the preceeding phonetic sound in the word in question. Words starting with an initial vowel sound take on the aricle "an" while those that start with a consonant sound take the article "a". An understanding of this basic rule will help you explain away all the seemingly confusing exceptions.
Take a look at the following examples:
A unique concept. The first sound in the word "unique" is the consonant sound "y" and not the vowel sound "u"; so the word takes on the article "a" even though the first letter is a vowel
An SMS. The first sound here is the vowel sound "e". It precedes the "s" sound even though the first letter "s" is a consonant.
Talking about the words with an initial "h", you just have to memorise the few exceptions. In most cases in English language when the letter "h" starts a word, it is often pronounced and not silent. As "h" is a consonant sound, such words take on the article "a" as in "a helicopter", "a horrible descent". There are however only four words in the whole of English language which start with an "h" but take on the article "an". This is because the letter "h" is silent and not voiced in these words, thus making the next letter which is usually a vowel to take over as the first sound and the determinant of the choice of article. These words are "hour, honour, honest and heir". Therefore, whenever these words and all their derivatives appear, they take on the article "an". See these examples.
An honest lawyer, an heir apparent to the British throne, an hourly injection of the drug, an honourable sheriff.
I hope someone here now perfectly understands the use of indefinite articles in English language. Thank you. |

Politics › Re: Why I Believe Pmb's Wife Is AISHA Of Haliburton Scam by omonighoblessing(f): 8:41am On Jun 22, 2016 |
MusaIbrahim1: Why I believe PMB's wife is AISHA of Haliburton scam
Following the controversies currently going on concerning the Haliburton case. I have decided to give the following case scenerios as reasons why I believe that Aisha Buhari od the Haliburton case is indeed our first lady.
1. Lamorde, former EFCC boss was claimed to be on the run after diverting over N1trillion of EFCC money. The truth is that the money was diverted for Buharia's election and that is the reason why he has remained untouched till date. He was only sent away on a terminal leave.
http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/199056-senate-orders-arrest-former-efcc-chairman-lamorde.html
Just when we had almost forgotten about the money he diverted from EFCC, he now came back from the moon to tell us that AISHA BUHARI is not the president's wife. At the moment GEJ has the whole file and it is part of the reason why GEJ has not been touched till date.
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/01/why-weve-not-arrested-jonathan-efcc-boss/
According to EFCC, the EFCC boss, Mr Ibrahim Magu said that no document has been traced to Jonathan giving any approval for the disbursement of the money for any purpose other than arms purchase.
Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/01/why-weve-not-arrested-jonathan-efcc-boss/
This is a big lie, Jonathan has the full file of the Haliburton case.
2.Remember thw N135 Million NGN donation by Aisha to IDP in Yola during the election?
http://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/nnorth-east/176715-buharis-wife-donates-drugs-worth-n135m-displaced-persons-yola.html
The 10 million naira expensive watch that she was once wearing when her husband was just sword in
https://www.naij.com/452094-nigerians-react-to-aisha-buharis-10-million-naira-watch.html
Have you ever asked yourself where she got that money in as much as her husband claimed that time that she cannot afford money for the nomination form
http://www.nigerianeye.com/2014/10/i-took-bank-loan-to-pay-for-apc.html
She also tried to control the damage by reducing the donation but was criticized and that was what she want
http://dailypost.ng/2016/04/01/aisha-buhari-donates-five-bags-of-rice-four-cartons-of-milk-to-displaced-agatu-people/
Well, I guess a lot of people were very gullible to ask questions.
3. I have seen the well photoshoped Passport being paraded as the real Aisha, ca mon, I never knew that one can wear headties to take passport pictures, they carefully carved out the pasport numbers so that they cannot be traced to another person by the USA government that has an authentic database of all aliens in their country. Tomorrow, am going to ask my friend to put Obama in Nigerian passport.
Why release a passport immediately whereas you are using 15 SAN to stop your certificate forgery.
4. The fact that Fayose's account was just frozen says a lot.
5. I heard she just called Fayose a mad dog, on twitter... The truth is the only thing that hurts, she is indeed pained.
PLEASE, Madam Aisha, prove us wrong by going to the USA. pls help me tel her ooh..I wonder how d defensive will be the one to bring out the passport. they suppose to ask fayose to provide it then we or the court confirms if truely it was aisha buhari. MADAM BUHARI......U dey lie eh! |
