Corrigan Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Any specific reason for this? Wouldn't it be quite easy to work one into the logo? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 It's a (8 year) tradition. Given that I am an English Lecturer, we're well aware of the grammatical error. Thanks though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cazboab Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Its AN 8 year tradition... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I'm afraid not - the (8 year) is in parenthesis, indicated a subordinate clause. The main subject of the sentence that the indefinite article refers to has an initial consonant; hence there is no need for an. Good effort though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
