Description:
------------
Just a note on the English documentation.
There are several places where "an unique [something]" appears in the
docs. (E.g., in http://us3.php.net/hw .)
This is obviously not a big deal, but these should all read "a unique"
because a/an usage in English is dependent on sound, not on whether the
following letter is literally a vowel or consonant. Unique is
pronounced as beginning with a consonant "y" sound, as in "you," so it
takes "a".
A unique opportunity.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Sorry if I've reported this in the wrong place.
Thanks for such a great product, by the way.
