It irks me when people put an in front of a word that begins with H but does not phonetically start with H. Even professionals on the news.
"An historical event" The H is not silent in that word like it is in the word hour

How did you not learn this in elementary school?

quote:The H is kind of half-silent in historical because we stress the second syllable, whereas in 'history' we stress the first. We say "an historical" because the unstressed H is barely pronounced, and the word nearly (or fully) sounds like it begins with a vowel. Try it a few times. "An historical" flows off the tongue much better than "a historical".
