Is an unique or a unique?

The actual way of distinguishing where to use either is in the sound of the word, that is, the first syllable. Words whose first syllable has a consonant sound then take up ‘a’. an example of this is unique who first syllable is ‘yoo’ which is not a vowel sound. Therefore, it is ‘a unique’ as opposed to ‘an unique’.

Do you use an before unique?

The real rule is this: You use the article “a” before words that start with a consonant sound and “an” before words that start with a vowel sound. The “u” in “unique” makes the “Y” sound—a consonant sound—therefore you use “a” as your article, while the “h” in “hour” sounds like it starts with “ow”—a vowel sound.
