StewartKnight Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 It's a hotel. In Hotel, the H is silent, therefore it becomes "It's AN hotel" ;-)
localzuk Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 In Hotel, the H is silent, therefore it becomes "It's AN hotel" ;-) You should be in the Edugeek Pedants group!
sparkeh Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) In Hotel, the H is silent, therefore it becomes "It's AN hotel" ;-) You are incorrect to pick this up as a mistake: explanation clicky The use of "an hotel" is archaic and came around due to an old fashion for people taking in French or pseudo French so pronounced it 'otel which required "an 'otel" but by modern rules should be "a hotel" Edited May 31, 2010 by sparkeh
