You're the second person who wrote "an harem" so I have to ask - do people say "harem" with a silent H? Is it a regional thing?

Maybe it's like "historic"?

honestly I still do a double take when I hear people say "historic" without pronouncing the H (and it sounds really wrong)

It sounds like vernacular to me, like how some dialects drop the "h" or like a slurred word.

But that's not actually what I meant. I mean that "historic" with aspiration can have either an "a" or an "an" and be grammatically correct.

...really? o____O

why? what is the point of "an" if it is allowed to precede non-vowels?

...Well grammatical exceptions are a thing in every language, so I don't know what to tell you.
