A, AN , THE
ARTICLES
THREE ARTICLES
Type 1 : INDEFINITE
 AN
 A
Type 2 : DEFINITE
 THE
Indefinite Articles - A / AN
 They refer to something not specifically known
to the person you are communicating with.
 They are used before nouns that introduce
something or someone you have not mentioned
before:-
For example:
"I saw an elephant this morning."
"I ate a banana for lunch."
Indefinite Articles - A / AN
 They are also used when talking about your
profession:
For example:
"I am an English teacher."
"I am a builder.“
A: the noun starts with a consonant
AN : the noun starts with a vowel
NOTE!!!
 If the next word begins with
a consonant sound when we say it, for example,
"university" then we use a. If the next word begins
with a vowel sound when we say it, for example
"hour" then we use an.
 We say "university" with a "y" sound at the
beginning as though it were spelt "youniversity".
So, "a university" IS correct.
 We say "hour" with a silent h as though it were
spelt "our".
 So, "an hour" IS correct.
Definite Article - the
 There are two ways to pronounce "the".
One "thuh" and the other "thee". To learn
when we use them see the pronunciation
files: pronounce "the". How to
Strong pronunciation Weak
pronunciation
When to use it
 You use ”the” when you know that the
listener knows or can work out what
particular person/thing you are talking
about.
The apple you ate was rotten.“
Did you lock the car?“
 You should also use ”the” when you have
already mentioned the thing you are talking
about.
She's got two children; a girl
and a boy. The girl's eight and the boy's
When to use it
 We use the to talk about geographical
points on the globe.
the North Pole, the equator
 We use the to talk about rivers, oceans
and seas
the Nile, the Pacific, the English channel
 We also use the before certain nouns
when we know there is only one of a
particular thing.
the rain, the sun, the wind, the world, the e
arth,
the White House
NOTE!!!
 However if you want to describe a
particular instance of these you should use
a/an.
I could hear the wind." / "There's a cold wind
blowing
When to use it
 “The” is also used to say that a particular
person or thing being mentioned is the
best, most famous, etc. In this use, 'the' is
usually given strong pronunciation:
 For example:
 "Harry's Bar is the place to go.“
