You're going based off of sound. "Hour" doesn't have a voiced H, so you'd say "AN hour." Along the same line, if you have a word that starts with a vowel but makes a consonant sound, like "unit" or "Ouija," you'd put "a" in front of it.

You use "an." The difference between "a" and "an" depends on the SOUND of the following word, not how it's spelled.

You write (and say) 'a'. An unnecessary act but A university. An umbrella, an upper floor; but a union, a unit, a unicorn.

a is used before words that start with a consonant Example: a dog, a house, a tree, a beverage an is used before words that start with a vowel Example: an onion, an apple, an iceberg, an egg, an umbrella

it is the sound not the spelling that counts. An hour , an honour.
