LAATE BUT IMPORTANT; for Kendra, 'a' or 'an'
Subject: LAATE BUT IMPORTANT; for Kendra, 'a' or 'an'

In front of a vowel, 'an' is used.


These are the exceptions, when 'a' is used in front of a vowel:


When 'u' or 'e' as the first letter in the word makes a consonant sound, like 'y', use 'a' instead of 'an'. Example:  a urinary infection, a US ship, a union, etc....a European,


When 'o' as the first letter makes a consonant sound, naemly 'w', use 'a' instead of 'an'.  'Example:  a one-eyed man, etc....


Hope this helps, GL

Subject: to put a comma in front of 'and that' is definitely wron.g.sm

Why would you do that? Since when do you put a comma in front of 'that', the less in front of 'and that'.
