I must make an doublepost

@ bauer:

You only use "an" if the next words first letter is "a,e,i,o or u".
For example "an uncle", or "an answer".

And "I must make an Doublepost" sounds... strange.
Maybe "I had to make a doublepost" would be better... ( if it's not, correct me :lol: )

Hey, guys, your English is good!:good:
I improved my English with English subtitled animes.
Do you write 'English' with a capital letter or not?

Oh I'm sorry Nilez but this post is old.

But thank you very much, I can use the "an" correctly now.

@palpatin: You have to write "English" with a capital letter

 

[Cherubion]

The word "English" in Capitals? This is awful if it looks like this.

Actually "English" is one of the few words with a capital letter in English. Nouns usually don't have a capital letter. Only names, countries and so on

There are also some words with h at the begining for which you have to us "an". That's when you don't speak the h, e.g.:
an hour

 

[Cherubion]

In French you have to connect the words in the speech if you hear a vovel. Even the "h". The French say "Aa".

Oui, c'est vrai. Eh, oops, sorry. Wasn't me... :roll:

 

[Cherubion]

So you understand why the "h" is in many languages supressed.
