>>337333280
it's been a honor discussing this with you
>>337332713
Depends on if you're saying the full word or just enunciating the acronym.
A first person shooter
An F P S
>>337333342
Dumb ratposter
>>337332713
An FPS, A first person shooter
>>337333280
Exactly. I don't see why people are divided on this issue here; we should be an union.
An FPS
A first person shooter
Based on phonetics. If it begins with a vowel then use An, if a consonant use A. FPS is pronounced as "eff pee ess", so An proceeds it.
Bait thread over.
>>337333093
>you say a fps for consoles
>and fps's for pc
>>337333649
it implies consoles has 1 frame per second or only one first person shooter whereas pc have multiple frame per seconds and first person shooters

gg no re
Abbreviations are read as abbreviations, not the words they stand for so top.
Use bottom if you intend to say (not fucking type) the meaning of the abbreviation.
>>337333280
not just vowels but vowel sounds. like pronouncing f as eff at the beginning of a word.
>>337332713
If you say it as literally 'FPS', an is correct because F sounds like ef
If you say it as first person shooter, then you should start with a
>>337332829
This is correct
>>337332829
Thank you, someone with an education
A goes before consonants, an goes before vowels. So a hour, an yogurt. Pretty simple.
>>337332829
If you say it like that you might have downes

you little shit
>>337333093
Hehehhehehh
>>337332829
If you write FPS, you read it as "eff pee ess". You don't read it as "first person shooter", that wouldn't make sense.
So correct answer is "an".
>>337333093
>fps's fedora
>>337333280
So according to that logic.. a hour?
