use article.... a or an ??
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The complete sentence is 'He is planning to go to a University for further studies'.

Explanation:

The given sentence is 'He is planning to go to _____ University for further studies'. The correct article to be used before the noun 'University' is 'a'.
The article 'a' is an indefinite article which is used before the noun that is not specified, identified or starts with a consonant. Although the word 'University' starts with a vowel 'u' but the sound of the first letter comes 'y' and it being a consonant requires the indefinite article.

An article is basically an adjective which modifies nouns. There are two types of articles in grammar, definite and indefinite.

The definite article 'the' is used before the specified and identified nouns.

Indefinite articles 'a' and 'an' are used before the unspecified and unidentified nouns.
