<thinking>Let's approach this step-by-step:
Let us work through this carefully (CoT):

Step 1: How should we interpret the challenge prompting me to do?
Determine the number of letter "a" in the term "Sobriquet"

Step 2: Dissect the word.
S-O-B-R-I-U-F-E-T


Step 3: Oops, I made a mistake. The word I used above is incorrect. Let me correct that.
The correct word is "Sobriquet", not "sobriufet". I apologize for the error.

Step 4: Let's continue with the correct word. Spell out the word with numbered positions:

1. S
2. O
3. B
4. R
5. I
6. Q
7. U
8. E
9. T

Step 5: Locate the positions of the letter "a".
The letter "a" does not appear in the word.

Step 6: Tally the letters.
E: 1, R: 1, T: 1, U: 1, S: 1, I: 1, Q: 1, B: 1, O: 1

Step 7: Evaluate the letters we enumerated.
The target letter was "a" and there we counted 0 in all.
