Louise a raison, mais

Explanation:
usuellement, les deux se disent ! Question de sens. Ainsi, on dit souvent "tu l'attrapes par la anse" et non "l'anse" de façon à souligner le mot "anse" très précisément.

Plus généralement, cela vient peut-être aussi de ce qu'il y a également risque de confusion avec "lance", mot plus courant qui, à l'impératif, peut intervenir un peu n'importe quand.

Il est fréquent que, pour souligner un sens, l'élision ne soit pas faite dans le langage parlé.

Mais, dans le principe, Louise a raison (voir lien).
