Oh, now this is something I\'m good at. Let\'s see...
\" peoples? \"... That looks wrong. Let\'s change that to \"people\'s\" instead, because you can\'t have more peoples, and you can\'t have those peoples having things, so it\'s \"people\'s stuff\", not peoples\' (peopless... Just look how stupid that is). You can\'t bend people anyway. It\'s always people in multi...pli...laris...something. You can\'t have only one people, so you don\'t put s on it when having more of them.
If that made any sense, press 1 now.
Anyway, \" (Note: A before consonants and an before vowels) \". That only goes for the sounds. It\'s still called A Yellow Book, simply because yellow sounds like it is spelled with a J, not a Y, same with An Hour. You can\'t hear the H, so it sounds like it starts with Our, thus being An Hour.
I\'m not trying to pick a fight, I\'m simply helping Merdarion understand how the English language works, and since you so gladly contributed a few errors, then... Yeah.
But anyway. Generally the English language doesn\'t have so many things that need to be understood, they just need to be learned and used in the right way. Trying to figure out how the grammar actually works will just make you far more confused than a giraffe on Mt. Everest, and you don\'t want that. Instead just try to accept how things are, and learn to put them together in the right way. It saves you lots of brain capacity too, anyway.
Besides, just be glad you\'re not learning Danish. It\'s probably the language that has the most nonsense-ish grammar in the entire galaxy, but that\'s because people try to learn the grammar. They don\'t do as I say and simply learn how to put sentences together. So silly...
