.......hour before that......... European came here.
Answers
Answer:
An hour before that a European came here.
Explanation:
The articles a and the are missing in the sentence and should be included.
An is preferred before hour because the first letter of hour is pronounced as an 'o', therefore we put the article 'an' before hour because we put article 'an' before vowel sound thus article 'an' before hour despite the word starting with a consonant.
In the other blank we fill with article a because we are not told which specific European went to that place and also because the first letter of the word European is pronounced as 'y' and we put article 'a' before consonant sounds thus the article 'a' before European instead of article an despite the word starting with a vowel.
Answer:
An hour before that a European came here.
Explanation:
This blank needed to be filled with correct articles. Articles 'a', 'an', and 'the' are used before nouns considering many rules in mind. One of the rules is the rule of consonant and vowel. While using articles we follow the 'sound rule' in mind. If the sound is vowel, we use 'an' while using indefinite article. If the sound is consonant, we shall use 'a'. Some words starting with vowel make consonant sounds. Words such as 'university', 'useful', ’unique’, 'unicorn', etc. also fall in the category of words that start with a vowel letter; but their sound is consonant. Hence we use 'a' in front of these words.
Here we used 'an' in front of 'hour' because its sound is vowel; and in the second blank we used 'a' in front of 'European' because its sound was consonant.
