What to Focus On

  • Articles come before nouns.
  • There are three articles: 'a', 'an', and 'the'.
  • Articles help us understand more about the noun.
  • Use 'a' before consonant sounds.
  • Use 'an' before vowel sounds.
  • It's about the sound, not the spelling.
  • Use 'the' for specific things.
  • Use 'the' for things that are one of their kind.
  • We already know about the thing we are talking about.

Memory Tips

Use 'a' before words that start with a consonant sound

Use 'an' before words that start with a vowel sound

Use 'the' for unique things or specific items

Sound matters, not spelling
