When I wrote "an MD " today -for some reason, I looked , and thought, MD starts with a consonant , but "a MD " sounded weird. Looked it up. Hit this cop out answer first. I went further. Three grammar sites confirmed " an " is correct. The rule is to use "a'" before words that start with a consonant sound and an before words that start with a vowel sound . MD starts with an 'em ' sound. An FBI agent - sound is 'eff'. So , average American, go with your gut. ESL - my sympathies.
Use "a" MD. Because you would write a Medical Doctor not an Medical Doctor. Regardless of how it sounds, use "a" with a consonant and "an" with a vowel. How things sound or how they are pronounced is subjective. The written word is not.

Is German grammar inspired by Latin grammar?
Both German and Latin descended from a common-ancestor language called Proto-Indo-European, which was likely spoken in the steppes of what is today southern Russia and the Ukraine, perhaps 3,000 years ago or more. Both German and Latin are related to dozens of other Indo-European Languages as well (from Irish to Farsi, from Portuguese to Russian, from Hindi to Albanian). Because German and Latin both come from the same source, Indo-European, their grammars are quite a bit more similar to each other than they are to other completely unrelated languages such as Bantu, Chinese, Navajo, or Samoan.To answer your question, then, German grammar is *not* "inspired" by Latin grammar, but instead both Germ and and Latin grammars are closely related and therefor similar to each other.
