Question

The bank teller gave Kurt a (an) _ look when he deposited a real check for twenty million dollars. (Fill in the blank)

Answer 1

Answer:

The bank teller gave Kurt a look when he deposited a real check for twenty million dollars.

Explanation:

The indefinite article a/an is used before nouns that are singular and countable, so there is no article before a noun that is plural.

If the word after a/an begins with a consonant, then we use the indefinite article a.

If the word after a/an begins with a vowel, then we use the indefinite article an.

The article relates to the first word of the phrase (if there are more than one, for example, there is an adjective before a noun), so if we had an adjective before the noun look that starts with a vowel (e.g. empty), the correct article would be an.
