And you told me what you would like to be.

·         Carlos would like to be a police officer or a firefighter because he likes helping people.

·         Alejandro would like to be a soldier because he likes shooting!

We say “an acrobat” because “acrobat” begins with a vowel sound “a”. We don’t say “a uniform”, because “u” in “uniform” isn’t a vowel sound.

We say “an hour” because “h” isn’t pronounced and “hour” begins with a vowel sound, not letter.
