Well, I guess my original example would be a good one:

I am a English teacher.
I am a teacher. What kind? English
"A" modifies teacher - not English.
Therefore,"a" would be correct...but doesn't it SOUND better to say AN ENGLISH teacher? ( I guess because AN is so close to ENGLISH and not teacher)

Againg, WTF?
