composer require bmstanley/indefinite-article
composer update
The PHP Indefinite Article Library is used to determine the proper indefinite article to use before a word ('a' or 'an'). To do so, simply call the invoke()
method with your word or phrase:
IndefiniteArticle::invoke('elephant')
The method will return a string prefixed with the appropriate indefinite article:
an elephant
