comment | We use the indefinite articles ‘a/an’ to say what someone is or what job they do: My brother George is an artist. We use ‘a’ when the noun we are referring to begins with a consonant (b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, y or z), for example, ‘a worker’, ‘a teacher’, and ‘a student’. We use ‘an’ when the noun we are referring to begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u), for example, ‘an accountant’. |
