Im a apple oder im an apple?

2 Antworten

naja, the old style (falsche regel in der schule gelernt) ist bei vokalen (selbstlauten) am anfang des folge wortes ein "an" zu schreiben .

The real rule is this: You use the article "a" before words that start with a consonant sound and "an" before words that start with a vowel sound. For example, He has a unique point of view on the subject and talked about it for an hour. The "u" in "unique" makes the "Y" sound—a consonant sound—therefore you use "a" as your article, while the "h" in "hour" sounds like it starts with "ow"—a vowel sound.

Ja aber bei Apple kommt definitiv ein an hin.

Ich würde sagen an apple, aber sie ärgern sich wahrscheinlich, dass du sie verbesserst.

Woher ich das weiß:eigene Erfahrung
