"an historic" is wrong and terrible if you pronounce the "h"
Could you elaborate? I'm dumb.
According to my pet peeve, this looks fine? I just scrolled past a meme that said something like "download a ISO" and I was like gah, no, it's AN ISO.
Some people pronounce the h and some don't. They're saying it sounds bad to say "an his..."
Oh I get it, I guess I never heard it pronounced that way. British maybe?
I've heard Brits both pronounce and not pronounce the "h", it's wild
