๐ This Advanced English lesson focuses on the use of articles in English, covering the key points where students often struggle.
๐ There are three articles in English: two indefinite articles, 'a' and 'an,' and one definite article, 'the.'
๐ก The use of articles can be confusing for non-native English speakers, as they may not have these articles in their native language.
The first time a person is mentioned, we use the indefinite article (a/an).
After introducing a person, we can refer to them with the definite article (the).
When referring to something common knowledge, we use the definite article (the).
๐ When referring to something common and well-known, like a roof, garden, or washing machine, we don't need to use an article.
๐ When talking generally, we don't use 'the' with animals. However, when being specific about animals in a certain location, we use 'the' (e.g., the elephants in my zoo).
๐น When discussing favorite flowers in general, we don't use 'the'. But when referring to specific flowers in a particular location, we use 'the' (e.g., the roses in my garden).
๐น Roses come in many colors, but the roses in the speaker's garden are mainly pink.
๐ Some words like bed, church, school, etc. do not require an article when used for their primary purpose.
๐ฅ Specific places like hospitals, universities, etc. also do not require an article when referring to their primary purpose.
๐ Articles 'a', 'an', and 'the' are used to indicate specificity and familiarity in English.
โจ The article 'the' is used when someone is not normally expected to be in a specific location.
๐๏ธ The article 'the' is used when visiting or conducting business in specific institutions or places.
๐ฃ๏ธ The article 'the' is used when referring to a specific office where someone works or a government in power.
๐ผ When discussing a person's place of employment, 'the' is used to refer to a specific office.
๐ Countable nouns have both singular and plural forms, while uncountable nouns do not have a plural form.
โ Countable nouns take the articles 'a' or 'an', while uncountable nouns do not.
๐ For countable nouns, use 'a' or 'an' for singular, and 'the' for plural.
๐ Uncountable nouns do not take indefinite articles, but use 'the' when referring to specific information or advice.
