And also the misuse of "a".

"A apple" or "a eye" is not proper grammer.

"An apple" or "an eye" is.

the "n" needs to be attached before the next word if it begins with a vowel unless it's "y".

Anyways, sorry those are the two main one's that make the hair on my neck rise.

Not all of us have one of dhem dare fancy edumications. But for me I'm not sure if it's bothered or entertained buy how some of the threads go for simple questions to off topic argument.

Don't forget words that start with an "h". Thems is wanting an "an" as well.

Yes, you are correct sir. But typical of the english language there are exceptions to this rule.

"I'll see you in an hour" as oppose to "do you have a handkerchief?" or "you don't have a hope in hell".

I believe the "h" rule only works sometimes but not always.
