Articles

The words a, an and the are called the articles.

Indefinite articles – a and an

The words a and an are indefinite articles. They are used with singular nouns. We use a before
nouns that begin with a consonant. We use an before nouns that begin with a vowel.

e.g John is reading a book.

I always take an apple to school.

The word the is called the definite article. We use the before a noun when we are talking to
someone who already knows which person or thing you mean.

e.g . Dad is sitting in the garden.
