- She drugged the wine with an herb/ a herb … Which form is correct? Explain why?
British vs American English
Best answer
Actually, the vowels (aeiou) have little to do with the indefinite article a or an. It is the vowel sound that counts. Take the example of: university and umbrella. Although both words start with a vowel, we say a university but an umbrella. Similarly, we say an egg but a European girl! Herb in American English is pronounced /3:(r)b/ while in British English it is pronounce /h3:b/. Therefore, in American English, it is an herb because the letter h is silent, while in British English it’s a herb because the letter h is not silent. So the rule is: an + a vowel sound and not an + a vowel!
- We say: ‘Long live the king!’ Why can’t we say ‘Long lives the king!’

they said William Shakespeare is the Father was founder of the English language why?
Best answer
* First of all keep this in your mind that learning a language is a fun, this will help you to overcome your fears. * Second if you have a vocabulary and you know few grammar rules than start thinking in English. *Third when you do mistake while speaking and someone laughs on you than also start laughing with him/ her on your mistake, this will help you to become confident. *My last suggestion to you is to watch some movies, channels of native English speakers that will improve not only your vocabulary but also your listening power. I hope these points will help you to become confident and fluent in English.
