This document discusses the rules for using articles (a, an, the) in English and provides examples. It notes that place names are usually article-less, except when plural, and discusses exceptions. Specific events, things, governments, and crises take "the". Nouns introduced for the first time take "a" or "an". Non-count nouns are usually article-less. The meanings and connotations of "few" vs "a few" and "little" vs "a little" are explored.
