6. Exceptions
6.1. There are two exceptions related to two letters in specific
6.1.1. The letter 'h'
6.1.1.1. This letter is part of the group of consonants, so we would immediately think that we should use "a" when the next word begins with 'h'. However, you know that everything depends on the sound, and it turns out that for this letter there are two cases: sound of 'j' and the famous 'h' mute. It is obvious that when you take a sound of 'j' the sound is consonant so 'a' is used, but when it is mute, usually the pronunciation of the word will start with vowel sound, so 'an' .
6.1.1.1.1. Examples
6.1.2. The letter 'u'
6.1.2.1. It is part of the vowels, but in some words it may sound like a consonant. Specifically, it takes the sound of the second singular person's pronoun "you", so the sound is related to the consonant letter 'y', the sound of the 'u' being considered as consonant sound in these cases.
