If you have a question about the English language and would like to ask one of our many English teachers and language experts, please click the button below to let us know:
Do you pronounce "an" as /æn/? Or as /ən/? ==================== Rule: an accepted principle or instruction that states the way things are or should be done, and tells you what you are allowed or are not allowed to do. Source: Cambridge Dictionary
I use the schwa pronunciation if I'm speaking quickly. I might use either if I were speaking more slowly.
