I love this one too:
I Before E, if Taken with Caffeine
"I before E
Except after C,
Unless pronounced A
As in 'neighbor' or 'weigh'"
Education is forfeit for reinforcing such rules!
Sound a feisty reveille while eyeing the schools!
Neither will our heirs be agreeing to deceptions
Once seeing, herein, these sufficient exceptions:
We were seized by a feeling
For fleeing on the ceiling
To a leisurely meal
With Keith, Sheila, and Neil
We drank madeira, so foreign, in steins
Along with a surfeit of weird blueish wines
Being foolish, took codeine, ate ancient proteins
Therein guaranteeing these ogreish scenes
Wherein we're canoeing to a new sovereign state
While deicing a kaleidoscope on a hot jadeite plate
And kneeing obeisance to an overseeing king
Our plebeian lips kissed his counterfeit ring.
Then we unveiled their sleight-of-hand trick
Deifying a heifer, with effect atheistic
And falling from the heights with a loud seismic crunch
We reignited the nonpareils we had heisted for lunch.
So I before E
Except after C
Unless pronounced A?
False decreeing, I say! |
 Thanks for that one, really enjoyed it!

Damn! I can only choose the last one. Basically, you name a format, I've been there and done that, right from the good ol' days of FlaskMpeg and Divx3.11alpha. Anyone still remembers them?

| Why is it AN? I was always told that you only use AN if the word following began with a vowel sound. |
 That's what I was taught also. While it may sound out of place on occasion, I believe that to be grammatically correct.

Which is correct: 'a hotel' or 'an hotel', 'a historian' or 'an historian'? And why is it 'a European' not 'an European'?
The form an for the indefinite article is used before a spoken vowel sound, regardless of how the written word is spelt. If you say 'an otel' when speaking (which is now often regarded as distinctly old-fashioned), then it may be appropriate for you to write 'an hotel'; but most people say 'hotel' with a sounded 'h', and should write 'a hotel'.
By contrast, words such as 'honour', 'heir' or 'hour' in which the 'h' sound is dropped are written with 'an'. Americans who drop the 'h' in 'herb' may also prefer to write 'an herb', but in standard British pronunciation the 'h' is sounded, and 'a herb' is therefore correct in writing.
Because 'European' is said with an initial 'y' sound, which counts as a consonantal sound in English speech, it is said (and written) with 'a' not 'an'. An abbreviation such as M.P., which is pronounced em pea, begins with a spoken vowel, and so it is 'an M.P.'

hech54 is right  , but it does depend on how the individual pronounces the word.
But anyway ...
I'll have to vote for seeing TGPO nude, because I've done everything else.

Actually, grammer-wise, written language would require "a SVCD" but spoken would differ as "an SVCD". Since SVCD is not a word, but rather a abbreviation, both "a" and "an" could be correct.

Wouldn't the tgpo option be like making a very very small mini-dvd?
btw) Where is the mini-dvd option and also the (x)(s)vcd or the infamous variants (k)(s)vcd and kdvd?

The word spelt from jimmalenko's article is another one. To a Yank that is incorrect but not to an Aussie or a Brit.
We yanks always use "spelled" but to me...we usually pronounce that word like spelt....interesting.
Had we done more stuff like this is English class in school.....that class probably would have been alot more fun. Learning how to diagram a sentence was useless to me....and boring.
