🤔 How to...use "a" and "an" ?

It’s common to think that the rule is to use an before a vowel letter and a before a consonant letter. But the actual rule is to use a before a consonant sound (b,c,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,m,n,p,q,r,s,t,v,w,x,y,z) and use an before a vowel sound (a,e,i,o,u)

It doesn’t matter whether the word starts with a vowel letter or a consonant letter. It just matters how the letter is pronounced.

Examples:
an herbal medicine
a jacket
an hour
a banana
an MBA
a pencil case
an umbrella

So, next time, do not be confused when reading  these words.

🤓 Grammar Bits: Present Progressive Tense

Today, let's learn about the rules about the present progressive tense!

Form the present progressive tense like this:
am + present participle
is + present participle
are + present participle

The present participle is the form of a verb ending with -ing.
For example:
show + ing = showing
come + ing = coming

You have to double the last letter of some verbs before you add -ing.
For example:
get + ing = getting 
nod + ing = nodding
jog + ing = jogging 

Notice that the verbs above are all short verbs of just one syllable.
They all end with a consonant such as b, d, g, m, p, t and have only one vowel before the consonant.

If a verb ends in e, you usually have to drop the e before you add -ing. For example:
chase + ing = chasing
cycle + ing = cycling
drive + ing = driving
smile + ing = smiling

💠 Quote of the Day 💠

“ A picture is worth a thousand words.”

It means sometimes an image or picture can tell a story better than words. For example, a painting can tell a story just by looking at it. Or some vacation photos can tell that it was a happy one because everyone is smiling in it.
