une
Singular “Masculine” Indefinite Article (A) and how is it pronounced?
un. “Un” is pronounced “uh”, unless it’s followed by a word that begins with a vowel, in which case you pronounce the n in “un”. For example, “un étudient” is pronounced “un ehtoodeeyah”, whereas “un tableau” is pronounced “uh tahblohh”.
Plural Indefinite Article (Some), how is it pronounced, and what happens to if it precedes a word that ends in “eau”?
des (regardless of gender). “Des” is pronounced “deh”, unless it’s followed by a word that begins with a vowel, in which case you pronounce the n in “un”. For example, “des étudient” is pronounced “dehz ehtoodeeyah”, whereas “des tableaux” is pronounced “deh tahblohh”. If des precedes a word that ends in “eau”, the word that ends in “eau” turns to “eaux”, such as des bureaux, or even des tableaux again.
