A is used when a noun starts with a consonant sound;

AN is used when a noun starts with a vowel sound;

SOME is used in:

* positive sentences;

e.g. I have got some time.

* questions, expressing requests and offers;

We use ANY with countable nouns (only with their plural) and with uncountable nouns.

ANY is used in:
