led (light emitting diode) an led Explanation: Most (if not all) native English speakers pronounce this as "ELL EE DEE", and so we would refer to "an LED". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 mins (2007-04-19 13:12:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Most definitely LED, not led - sorry -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2007-04-19 13:13:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Anyway, couldn't you just avoid the issue by saying "the LED blinks"? |
