An is before vowel sounds. Hence "an unionized chemical". A is before consonant sounds, hence "a unionized plumber".
or to use more sensible examples, "an underappreciated grammatical concept" vs "a united kingdom".

@previous (chill dog !!81dzJNNYL) > It's not correct. UID is pronounced "you eye dee", so it should be "a UID" because it's not a vowel sound.

Never do that. Your unsensible examples were way more fun. Some of us enjoy imagining labor union friendly gas laws and plumbers having to get rid of any excess charge before showing up to work.

"U" isn't a vowel, you mora. It begins with a "Y" sound and its root letter is therefore "D", which, from an linguistic perspective, makes it an consonant. Any schoolboy proficient in the English language can tell you this. Thanks.
