A or an expensive-pendant-lamp-knock-off?

Did I get this headline right or wrong?

“How to make a expensive-pendant-lamp-knock-off“

Is it “a knock-off” or “an expensive…”? Did I make any other mistakes?


Best regards, Niklas 🎈

Since the adjective "expensive" begins with a vowel sound, it is correct to say "an expensive…". 

If you were to just say "a knock off" without the use of an adjective that begins with a vowel sound, such as "expensive", then you would say "a knock-off".

Does that clarify it for you?

So, “How to make an expensive-pendant-lamp-knock-off“, would be correct.
