Question

use a /an / the articles his brother is ____ RJ in local radio channel​

Answer 1

Use a /an / the articles:

His brother is an RJ in a local radio channel.

• RJ is the abbreviation of Radio Jockey.

• The pronunciation of RJ is AAR-JAY.

• We use vowel sound while pronouncing RJ.

• So we use the article "an" before RJ.

There are mainly two kinds of articles:

Definite Article -

• The definite article "The" is used before a singular noun or plural noun and before some proper nouns.

Indefinite Articles -

The Indefinite Articles "A/An" :-

• Article "A" is used before a singular noun that begins with a consonant sound.

• Article "An" is used before a singular noun which begins with a vowel sound

Answer 2

Answer:

His brother is ____ RJ in local radio channel.

• Appropriate article for the given blank space is 'an'.

• An is an Indefinite Article. Article is used before Noun and here Rj is a Noun. Articles are of two types and they are Definite and Indefinite Articles.

• It's true 'r' is a consonant letter but when it is pronounced, sound 'a' come first and we know 'a' is one of five vowels : A, e, i, o, u. Indefinite Article 'an' is used before a word starts with vowel or vowel sound : Rj.
