- The letters A,E,I,O,U are all vowels. Every other letter in the English alphabet is known as a consonant.
- The only example is when you use a noun beginning with a vowel you must say 'an' instead of 'a'. For example, AN elephant. Or AN apple.
- When nouns beginning with consonants you use 'a'. For example A fox. Or A Rabbit. (There are some exception to this rule though)
