Correct option is C
Option (c) contains an error.
Explanation: The article
"an" is used before words that begin with a vowel sound, not just a vowel letter. Although
"university" starts with a vowel
'u', it is pronounced as
'yu', which is a consonant sound. Therefore, the correct article should be
"a", not
"an".
Correct sentence:
As both a novelist and a university lecturer, she has two strings to her bow.
Grammatical rule used:
Use
"a" before consonant sounds and
"an" before vowel sounds.
Example:
·
He is a European. (Because 'European' starts with the 'y' consonant sound)
·
She bought an umbrella. (Because 'umbrella' starts with a vowel sound)
��
Info booster: Always check
pronunciation rather than spelling when deciding between "a" and "an".
