Melbourne pedant Dr Ron Smith talks Indefinite Articles on ABC’s Perspective
Tune-in to your local ABC Radio National today at 5:55 P.M. to hear me rant about indefinite articles and the letter ‘h’.
In this installment about the demise of the English language, I get angry about people who use an “an” in front of words with a pronounced letter ‘h’: an horrendous, an horrific and an horrible practice I’m sure you’ll agree.

Woops… don’t panic, I’ve sacked my publicist.
Tune in Wednesday 28th November instead.
