Use Of The A And An Questions
No, 'a' and 'an' cannot be used before words starting with 'q'. Instead, 'a' and 'an' are used before words starting with consonant sounds, while 'an' is used before words starting with vowel sounds. Since the letter 'q' is always followed by the vowel 'u' in English, it is pronounced with a consonant sound, so 'a' is used before words starting with 'q'.
