We use the article "an" before the letter X because of the pronunciation of the name of the letter. The name of the letter is pronounced as if it were spelled "ex." And. since we use "an" before words that start with a vowel sound, we say "an X."

Why do you say an x instead of a x?

The use of "an" before a word starting with "x" is incorrect because the sound of "x" is a consonant sound. "An" is used before words that start with a vowel sound, while "a" is used before words that start with a consonant sound. Therefore, it should be "a x" instead of "an x."
