Em português dizemos 'comprei luminária nova' e 'ele é engenheiro'. Em inglês é preciso 'a' ou 'an': 'a new lamp', 'an engineer'. Palavra com som de vogal no início pede 'an'.
A single countable thing needs a/an: a new lamp. Jobs need it too: he's an engineer. Words that start with a vowel sound get 'an': an exhibition, an hour.
Uma coisa só ou uma profissão? Coloque a/an na frente.
