We use a before a consonant and an before a vowel or a vowel sound.
*I went to see a movie last night.
I went to an exhibition yestrday.
My friend is an honest man.*
We use a/an wnen it doesn't matter which particular person or thing we are talking about; when we mention this person/thing as an example of a group/category; or when we mention something for the first time.
The teacher is talking to a student from my class.
We bought a new car. (one of many cars. it's not important which one precisely)
I saw a girl walking down the street.
