Question

List of some words starting with consonants but we use an before tgem

Answer 1

Answer:

honest, hour, heir, honour (and their derivatives, such as honesty, honourable, honorary), herb (in American English)

Explanation

H has a habit of growing silent every once in a while, and so some H-words really sound like they start with the following letter instead. Much in a similar fashion, U sometimes adopts a starting Y sound, making it sound like it starts with a consonant even when in fact, it does not (f.ex. unique, union, utility).
