I was being helpful - the guy doesn't speak English as a first language and I know that, and I do the same for foreign speakers at work. WhoDa obviously appreciates it. Trying to then confuse him with "vowel sounds" and obscure American grammar corruption is just silly and nonconstructive.

Since English isn't your first language, here's a tip for an/a usage:Use "an" when the first letter of the next word is a vowel (e.g. an apple, an egg, an idiot, an orange, an umbrella)Use "a" when the first letter of the next word is a consonant (e.g. a headache, a dog, a plane, a cow)
