anorack - “a” vs “an” checker

Description

       The English language has two indefinite articles:

       • a: used before words that begin with a consonant sound (e.g., aprogram, ahost, auser);

       • an: used before words that begin with a vowel sound (e.g., anexample, anhour, anundefinedvariable).

       anorack is a specialized spell-checker that finds incorrect indefinite articles.

Example

          $ cat test
          a Ubuntu user
          a 8-byte word

          test:1: a Ubuntu -> an Ubuntu /u:b'u:ntu:/
          test:2: a 8 -> an 8 /'eIt/
          test:3: an username -> a username /j'u:z3n,eIm/
