Wole Soyinka is from Ogun state you know?

Yes and so?
Is wole shoyinka now better than the British who invented invented English

If wole Soyinka makes that same mistake then I'm disappointed bro.
Becoz it very very wrong. Use ur google

tuzle:
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"

konoplyanka:
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,
Keep defending Ur stupidity and ignorance.
Illiterate brown roofer claiming sophistication.
Yet no brains.

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

ok,but I don't make the mistake of using a when I am supposed to use an or vice versa

OK

fews are roaming

NIGHTMARE0O7:
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!

NIGHTMARE0O7:


Wrong grammar
"A Harmless joke" not AN
Wait are u a yoruba?
Why do u people always make this primary one mistake..?
i Iearnt how to use A or An in primary one

Yoruba students always have f9 in English language,

NIGHTMARE0O7:
thats how u can easily fish them out from public when they speak.
The worst part is that, their lecturers , professors and doctors make same mistake.
Yet the claim EDUCATED AND SOPHISTICATED.

haba!! Using A or An is in nursery school curriculum nau

I swear

Pls stop!!!
Just stop it u are very very wrong..
Pls just stop u are making me go crazy and it's annoying.
Pls ask any English professor who u know.
It's a pity I have to say professor because u don't need professor to confirm this.
Even bright primary one student can confirm this for u.

But mind u the prof must not be a Yoruba prof. (mind u not a Yoruba) because YORUBA professors makes same mistake.


"AN HARMLESS" iS VERY VERY VERY VERY VR WRONG PLS.. IM 1000% sure.
This is so embarrassing from u
YORUBAS really need to do something about this.

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
