Concept/Grammar rules

Application

Article “A” is used before words starting in consonant sounds and “An” is used before words starting with vowel sounds. It doesn't matter if the word is an adjective, a noun, an adverb, or anything else; the rule is exactly the same.

Here, the word ‘intense’ gives vowel sound.

Hence, article ‘an’ will be in the blank.
