    “An” with words that start with an H bother the hell out of me. Unless you’re not pronouncing the H, it sounds weird to say “an” here. Makes sense with an English accent I guess, but it’s annoying when Americans do it, cause we pronounce all these Hs.

      It honestly bothers me too, but I stole this meme and didn’t feel like fixing it. I learned today that I’m more lazy than pedantic.

      (Edit: went ahead and fixed it)

      Heyyy, fun fact: lemmy allows fully editing posts. I just manually erased the “n” and re-uploaded.

        This was not the response I expected! I’m being pedantic 😄

      Don’t Brits use “an” with ‘h’ words? Pretty sure they do. Not sure about Canadians.
