Subject:a vs an special case From:"Nathan J. Yoder" <trw -dot- njyoder -at- gummibears -dot- nu> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Sat, 4 Jan 2003 13:17:38 -0500
I read the archives that already had an "a vs an" thread, but I think there's
another case which wasn't covered. What do you use ("a" or "an") when
the letter "H" itself is pronounced (i.e. H.D., H-Bomb, H.323). I've
noticed on google using "an" seems popular, but I'm not sure how accurate
those websites are.
