No, the word 'a' is an article, a word used before a noun to limit it or make it clearer, a type of determiner.

A noun is a word for a person, a place, or a thing.

The articles are a, an, and the. Examples:

A dog is howling. (the article 'a', used before a consonant sound, tells us that the dog is not a specific dog)

An animal is howling. (the article 'an' used before a vowel sound, tells us that the animal is not a specific animal)

The dog is howling. (the article 'the' tells us that it is a specific dog known to the speaker and the listener)
