What to Focus On

  • Articles are used before nouns.
  • 'A' and 'an' are indefinite articles.
  • 'The' is the definite article.
  • Use 'a' before consonant sounds.
  • Use 'an' before vowel sounds.
  • Sound matters more than spelling.
  • Use 'the' for specific or already known things.
  • Used with superlatives and unique things.
  • Used with mountain ranges, rivers, seas.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

We use 'an' before words that start with vowels (a, e, i, o, u), and 'a' before words that start with consonants.

We always use 'the' before unique things like sun, moon, and earth.

We use 'a' or 'an' with all singular countable nouns.

Memory Tips

Three articles: a, an, the

Use of 'a' before consonant sounds

Use of 'an' before vowel sounds

Silent 'h' words take 'an'
