Tattoos Gone Awry

From the guys over at humortrain.com:  A grammar lesson for tattoo artists everywhere.

The Purdue OWL Online Writing Lab explains the problem:

“A” goes before words that begin with consonants.

• a cat
• a dog
• a purple onion
• a buffalo
• a big apple

“An” goes before words that begin with vowels:

• an apricot
• an egg
• an Indian
• an orbit
• an uprising

Exceptions

Use “an” before unsounded “h.”

And yes, God is awesome.
