English question from Naib Tehsildar exam, 2018 by JKSSB

Fill in the blanks with the appropriate article:
I like learning new languages. French is ____________ easy language.

Last updated Nov 6, 2026
Correct Answer: Option B — an
Why "an"?
In English, the choice between "a" and "an" depends on the sound that follows the article:

Use "an" before words that begin with a vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u).

Use "a" before words that begin with a consonant sound.

In your sentence, the word "easy" begins with the vowel sound /iː/, so "an" is the correct fit.

The full sentence: "French is an easy language."
