===Etymology 1===
{{contraction of|de|ein}} Like virtually all traditional German dialects, colloquial standard German distinguishes the indefinite article from the numeral for “one”"one". The specific form {{m|de||’n'n}} has spread from the North southward and is thus of chiefly {{der|de|nds|-}} origin. Most [[High German]] dialects use forms without the final ''-n'', such as {{IPAchar|[ə]}} or {{IPAchar|[a]}}, at least for the basic form (i.e. the masculine and neuter nominative). These pronunciations are sometimes heard in colloquial standard German as well, but {{m|de||’n'n}} is clearly the commonest form.

====Usage notes====
* In formal Welsh, the contraction {{m|cy|'n}} is a valid form of {{m|cy|ein}} found after mostly functional vowel-final words. In colloquial Welsh, {{m|cy|ein}} is often contracted to {{m|cy|'n}} after almost any vowel-final word.
* Pronomial {{m|cy|'n}} (and {{m|cy|ein}}) can occur before any verbal noun. Before verbal, pronomial {{m|cy|'n}} is found only in formal language after certain vowel-final preverbal particles, such as {{m|cy|fe}}, {{m|cy|a}}, {{m|cy|ni}}, {{m|cy|na}}, {{m|cy|oni}} and {{m|cy|pe}}.
