The word "an" is the indefinite article that precedes words that start with a vowel pronunciation.

An is an indefinite article. It has a counterpart in the English language and that's "a". Many times An/a are easily mixed up but once you learn the rule for usage it's fairly easy.

  1. You use "An" before any word that contains a vowel. (An elephant, An apple, An emu).
  2. You use "A" before any word that contains a consonant (A boy, A cat).
