The words 'a' and 'an' are indefinite articles ('the' is a definite article) that precede a singular, general word. The article 'a' precedes a word that begins with a consonant sound; the article 'an' precedes a word the begins with a vowel sound. Example sentence:

I have both an old and a new car.
