There are five English vowels : a,e,i,o,u. One of the most common rules with vowels is that when you are using an article before a word starting with an vowel ( for example - Education), then we use 'an' article before the word. Hope this helps.

a, e, i, o and u are vowels in English. Vowels are different than consonants because of phonetics. Whenever you pronounce a vowel, you can still pass air from your mouth, but this is not a case with the consonants, hence they are different. To know more you can refer phonetics and vowels.

So Shishir, As you would know out of the 26 letters in the English language, five, namely a,e,i, o, and u are called vowels. These five letters are the back bone of all English word pronunciations. It would be close to impossible to pronounce any word without the presence of vowels in them. Just a handful...

So Shishir, As you would know out of the 26 letters in the English language, five, namely a,e,i, o, and u are called vowels. These five letters are the back bone of all English word pronunciations. It would be close to impossible to pronounce any word without the presence of vowels in them. Just a handful of actual words in the English language can be formed without vowels and a majority of them would have a 'y' instead of one of the vowels. There is a lot more to vowels but for now I do hope this helps! Cheers! read less

Can you share your teething problems while learning English? A 1970's Anecdote goes as follows....... I studied in six various schools across the length and breadth of Tamil Nadu. Medium was Tamil. I couldn't interact with my classmates in English during my Professional College days. Many of them were from reputed English Medium schools. They were using slang words picked up from English Novels. It added insult to injury as my status in normal Spoken English was in a bad shape. Once I met one of such Silver tongued English Speaking classmates while travelling by a day train down to South.Our conversation was bi-lingual,me inevitably sticking to Tamil and he with his gift-of-the-gab English,that too in American accent.The eight hour journey went on hilariously and co-passengers were perplexed but pitied me for my inability to deliver even one word of English.He alighted at one of en route stations where his father had come to collect him. To our surprise his illiterate father started enquiring about his journey etc, in local Tamil and my friend replying in fluent Tamil.
I started off speaking english at a very young age no matter I was speaking right or wrong. People used to stop me while I spoke wrong English. But I saw with time, those errors were gone. Later on I determined...
