Spot the errors

1) Our hawker centres

This picture was taken at Block 20 Marsiling Lane. The signboard reads ‘HANDICAP TABLE’.
Is this a table for the handicapped or is the table handicapped?

2) Dolby Digital Services

The below photo was taken on 14 September 09 at Buona Vista MRT station.

3) This picture was taken outside a kindergarten at Blk 288G Bt Batok St 25. The Principal of the kindergarten put up this notice for all parents to read.

4) Smoke begone

Can you spot all the errors in picture 2,3 & 4??

5) Priority seats

'Give up this seat' or 'Give this Seat’?

6) Many people think that you should use ‘a’ before a consonant and ‘an’ before a vowel,
but it is not quite that simple.

The actual rule is that ‘a’ is used before a consonant sound and ‘an’ before a vowel sound.

We use ‘an hour’ instead of ‘a hour’ because the word ‘hour’ begins with a ‘o’ (vowel) sound;
the ‘h’ is silent.

Conversely, we say ‘a Ouija board’ instead of ‘an Ouija board’ because ‘Ouija’ is pronounced with a w (consonant) sound. So, do you say ‘a MRT station’ or ‘an MRT station’?
