Bigwig1:In the case of words like hour or honest, the 'h' sound is silent. Instead you pronounce it as 'our' and 'onest', that's why using 'an' is allowed. In the case of hotel, it is pronounced with the 'h' sound, as in 'H-otel', not 'otel'. This is what differentiates using using a and an 7 Likes |

The 'H' factor deficiency group of people (Not just only Yoruba people these days) use "An" for hotel. Though English language is a brain twister. |

Ufedolove: In response to the bolded, I strongly disagree, in this part of the world, we have been taught about vowels and consonants instead of Vowel sounds or consonant sounds. This is why University carries "a" and not "an" despite starting with a vowel. This is because the "You" sounds in University is a consonant sound. So the rule to "a" or "an" is applicable to sounds not necessarily the alphabet that starts the word. For Instance, you can say "An SMS" this is because SMS carries "ES" sound. 4 Likes |

A hotel is correct. The 'h' there isn't silent. So 'A' has to be placed before a word that starts with a consonant letter. Where a word starts with a vowel, you place 'An' before it. |
