hi everybody and welcome to this video
in this video we're going to talk about
using a or n okay we use AA or an in
front of nouns well what is a noun a
noun is a person place thing or animal
okay so let's look at the board the
first noun we have is banana banana
starts with the consonant B so we put
all banana a banana look at the next
word Apple in this case the first letter
is a a is a vowel
remember the vowels are a I owe you so
we have to put N and Apple cat hmm the
first letter C is a consonant so should
we put all or n remember if it's a
consonant we have to put a a cat the
next word boy again
the the word starts with a consonant B
so we have to say ah boy
the next word egg has the letter e in
front
II is a vowel so what do we put we put
an if we read it it sounds like an egg
an egg okay and the last word is ant ant
starts with the vowel a so again we must
put an end an ant now let's go through
these words together a banana a banana
an apple an apple keep in mind that when
you have an in front it has to sound
almost like
