Chapter 9 \u2013 Articles<\/b><\/p>\n

An article<\/i> is a kind of adjective which is always used with and gives some information about a noun<\/i>. There are only two articles<\/i> a and the. but they are used very often and are important for using English accurately.<\/b><\/p>\n

The word a (which becomes an when the next word begins with a vowel<\/i> \u2013 a, e, i, o, u ) is called the indefinite article<\/i> because the noun it goes with is indefinite or general. The meaning of the article<\/i> a is similar to the number one. but one is stronger and gives more emphasis. It is possible to say I have a book or I have one book. but the second sentence emphasizes that I do not have two or three or some other number of books.<\/b><\/p>\n

The word the is known as the definite article<\/i> and indicates a specific thing. The difference between the sentences I sat on a chair and I sat on the chair is that the second sentence refers to a particular, specific chair, not just any chair.<\/b><\/p>\n

Many nouns, especially singular<\/i> forms of countable<\/i> nouns which you will learn about later, must have an article<\/i>. In English, it is not possible to say I sat on chair without an article<\/i>. but a demonstrative or possessive adjective can be used instead of an article as in the sentences I sat on that chair and I sat on his chair .<\/b><\/p>\n

Whenever you see an article<\/i>. you will find a noun with it. The noun may be the next word as inthe man or there may be adjectives and perhaps adverbs between the article<\/i> and the noun as in the very angry, young man .<\/b><\/p>\n
