Words starting with "u" that sound like "yu"

Use 'a' when the word starts with a consonant, or before words starting in u and eu when they sound like you. Use an when the next word starts with a vowel or with a mute 'h'. For example:

Ø  She saw a big elephant in the park.

Ø  She needs an umbrella as it's raining outside.

Ø  It is an honor to be here.

In English grammar, articles are words that precede and modify nouns. They indicate whether a noun is specific or general. The definite article, "the," refers to a specific, known noun, while the indefinite articles, "a" and "an," refer to a general or unspecified noun.
