Question問:
Should it be "a eucharistic minister" or "an eucharistic minister"?
應該是“a eucharistic minister”(聖餐牧師)還是“an eucharistic minister”?
Answer答:
When choosing between the articles 'a' and 'an,' you must listen to the sound at the beginning of the word immediately following it. The first sound in 'eucharistic' is /j/ or the y-sound. Because this is a consonant sound, use 'a.' When the sound immediately following a/an is a vowel sound, use 'an.' Below are some examples:
在冠詞“a”和“an”之間進行選擇時,你必須聽它後面緊跟着的單詞開頭的聲音。“eucharistic”中的第一個音是/j/或y音。因為這是輔音,所以用a。當緊接在a/an後面的是元音時,使用'an '。下面是一些例子:
· a dog [/d/ is a consonant sound]
· A dog(一隻狗) [/d/是一個輔音]
· an apple [/æ/ is a vowel sound]
· an apple(一個蘋果) [/æ/是元音]
· a barnacle 一個藤壺
· a chubby baby 一個胖乎乎的嬰兒
· an influential writer 一個有影響力的作家
· a unicorn [the first sound is /j/ even though u is a vowel]
· a unicorn(一隻獨角獸)[第一個音是/j,盡管u是元音]
