Question

Tap the sentence that uses the articles 'a' or 'an' incorrectly.

Answer 1

The article 'an' is used before collective nouns that start with a vowel sound, while the article 'a' is used before collective nouns that begin with a consonant sound. Here, the collective noun 'colony' starts with the consonant sound 'kuh' and the collective noun 'intrusion' begins with the vowel sound 'i'. Therefore, this sentence uses the articles 'a' and 'an' incorrectly.
