I posted a Add to sell phone in local classifieds website and you know what people in our city from Africa contacted to buy phone and ship phone to this African country. I marked the Email as spam and want to alert people from Asia to beware of these people as every week, 1 raid and drugs seized case comes up. I am sure new kind of African spam. Why our Govt even allow people from these countries.
OMG:- These people all over here

When to Say "a" or "an"
The indefinite article is a or an. But how do we know when to say a and when to say an?
The rule is really very simple. It depends on the sound at the start of the following word. (It does not depend on the way we write the following word, it depends on the way we say it.)
A + consonant sound
If the following word starts with a consonant sound, then we say a.
a cat
a stupid motherfucker
a human emotion
a Peruvian Pedofile
a very fat woman
AN + vowel sound
If the following word starts with a vowel sound, then we say an.
an apple
an extremely stupid motherfucker
an interesting film
an old man with hairy balls
an umbrella up your ass
The importance of sound
Normally, we pronounce consonant letters with a consonant sound, and vowel letters with a vowel sound. But there are some exceptions. The rule about a or an is still the same. You just need to think about the sound, not the writing. Look at these examples:
consonant letter with vowel sound
an honest man on-estan
hour our
an FBI agent eff-bee-eye
vowel letter with consonant sound
a European country you-ro-pe-ana
one-day conference won-daya
university you-ni-ver-si-ty
ENLISH MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU SPEAK IT?
