A Gram of Grammar #2

The Use of “an” Before a Silent “h”

Sounds strange. But we use it daily without a thought about it.

Such as, “an honor.” You would never say, “a honor,” that just sounds weird. It’s common to imput “an” even though we don’t consciously think about it.

Every time there is a word beginning with a silent “h,” use the “an” to implement proper grammar.

If the “h” is not silent, stick with using “a.”

Like “a hot car” or “a hairy beast.”

examples

• an honor
• an homage
• an herb

The secret is in the silence.

A Gram of Grammar #1

Who or Whom, That is the Question

A Relative Clause is used to give additional information in one single sentence rather than repeat the words in another statement. It often uses relative pronouns to connect the two sentences together.

A Relative Pronoun is a pronoun that connects a relative clause into a bigger sentence. The most common relative pronouns are Who, Whom, Whoever, Whomever, Whose, That, Which, What, When and Where.

The pronoun to use is determined by what the subject is.
