Question

Ram went to Saudi Arabia ........................ year ago.

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

Answer 1

Answer:

A. a

• We use “a” before singular countable nouns beginning with a consonant sound.

• The word “year” begins with the consonant sound /j/ (like in yes),
  not with a vowel sound.

  👉 So, we use “a”, not “an”.
