English Sentence Correction & Common Errors

Choose the correct sentence.

A He is a honest man.

B He is an honest man.

C He is honest man.

D He is the honest man a.

Although "honest" starts with a consonant letter, the "h" is silent, so the word begins with a vowel sound and takes "an."

Some words starting with "h" are silent — say the word aloud to check.
