unanimity noununanimously adv.
?Which word?

a unanimous, not an unanimous

Unanimous begins with the consonant sound /j/, so it takes a, not an.

Unanimous की शुरुआत /j/ यानी consonant sound से होती है, इसलिए इसके साथ a आता है, an नहीं आता। 'A unanimous decision' सही है।

§Grammar and usage

Article question: 'a unanimous decision' (not 'an').

Article प्रश्नों में 'a unanimous decision' सही है।
