Hello everyone! Today we're going to talk about the use of articles in English grammar. Articles are words that define a noun as specific or unspecific. There are two types of articles: definite (the) and indefinite (a/an). - Definite article the is used to refer to a specific noun that is already known or has been mentioned before. For example, The cat is black. - Indefinite article a/an is used to refer to a non-specific noun or to introduce something for the first time. For example, I saw a lion at the zoo. Remember, a is used before consonant sounds and an is used before vowel sounds. Also, we don't use articles before the names of people or places, or before general nouns like love or happiness. Now, let's practice using articles in sentences. Can you think of a sentence using both the and a/an? Share your examples in the comments below! Thank you for watching and happy learning!
