Question

Choose the correct article. I saw ______ one-eyed man.

• A. an
• B. a
• C. the
• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer:

B. a

• Rule: Choose the article based on the sound of the next word, not the actual spelling.

• Explanation: The word "one" begins with a consonant sound ("wa"), even though it starts with the vowel letter "o".

• Examples:

  • A university (starts with a "ya" sound).

  • A one-way street (starts with a "wa" sound).
