REVISION: ARTICLES

A/A

We use a with general nouns (things) which are countable and singular:

I have got a grey cat . ( cat = countable, singular)

He's not a very intelligent man . ( man = countable, singular)

We do not use a with uncountable or plural nouns, abstract nouns (feelings or ideas) or proper nouns (real

names of people and places):

Have we got any rice ? ( rice = uncountable)

My mother has three tables . ( tables = plural)

I love nature . ( nature = abstract)

John comes from London. ( London/John = proper)

UWAGA! Some uncountable nouns can be used in a countable way:

I'd like to have a coffee ( = one cup of coffee)

Maria likes to have a water at lunchtime ( = one glass of water)

We also do not use a if another word is used to describe the noun ( a determiner) or if a possessive is

used:

This is my cat. Where is your cat? ( my/your = determiners)

I've got only one friend. ( one = determiner)

Where is John's cat? ( John's = possessive)

We use an when a noun begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) or a vowels sound:

He is an electrician. ( e lectrician = vowel)

He went to a university in England. ( u niversity = vowel)

He is an MP [Member of Parliament]. (MP = ' em-pee' = vowel sound)

It was an historical occasion. (historian = ist orian = vowel sound)
