How 'bout "a"?

If ya knew English a little better, your post may have more credibility but than again, maybe not :laugh:

I think he reads the sentance as an F. O. G. rather than a FOG (pronounced as a word). The a vs. an is based upon the pronunciation of the following letter rather than its true value as a consonant. I can find no hard rule (like English has many of those) that states whether an abbreviation is given a or an based on it's beginning letter or pronunciation as a word. Therefore either version is correct based on how the author reads the sentance.

One would think someone who's posting about proper grammar wouldn't have so many grammatical errors! :laugh:
 
Point taken, don't post tired. Touched up version is below.

Good catch, Matt.

I think Matt reads the acronymn as "F. O. G." rather than as "FOG" (pronounced as a word). The "a" vs. "an" is based upon the pronunciation of the following letter or word rather than its true value as a consonant or vowel. I know of no hard rule (like English has many of those) that states whether an acronymn is given "a" or "an" based on its beginning letter or pronunciation as a word. Therefore either version is correct based on how the author reads the acronymn.
