DEDICATION
This anthology is the first achievement of the way that I undertake in learning a new language, to make my way in today's world of knowledge, which requires skilled people to function in any area or country.
This motivation is thanks tomy grandmother who encouraged me every day to be better prepared and achieve the goals I propose.
That is why I dedicate this anthology with love and affection to my beloved grandparents.
Also dedicate this collection to the future students of this institution, hoping to be for them an incentive to continue to prepare and complete a step in student life and professional preparation.

Introduction

Article…
English articles are by name and never appear alone. They can be so determined (final - el, la) or indeterminate (indefinite - a, an).An article is a word that combines with a noun to indicate the type of reference being made by the noun. Articles specify the grammatical definiteness of the noun, in some languages extending to volume or numericalscope. The articles in the English language are the and a/an. The word some is thus used as a functional plural of a/an. "An apple" never means more than one apple.
Among the classical parts of speech, articles are considered a special category of adjectives. Some modern linguists prefer to classify them within a separate part of speech, determiners. Articles are usually characterized as eitherdefinite or indefinite. A few languages with well-developed systems of articles may distinguish additional subtypes.
The three articles {a, an, the} are a kind of adjective. The is called the definite article because it usually precedes a specific or previously mentioned noun; a and an are called indefinite articles because they are used to refer to something in a less specific manner (anunspecified count noun). These words are also listed among the noun markers or determiners because they are almost invariably followed by a noun (or something else acting as a noun)

What is an article? Basically, an article is an adjective. Like adjectives, articles modify nouns. English has two articles: the and a/an.
The articles a / an and the are to refer to things. For to be used when thefollowing word begins with a consonant and in the case of an be used when it starts in a vowel.
The words will be used to start both consonants and vowels Example:
An umbrella

The umbrella
A book

The book
An eraser

The eraser
A dictionary
The is used to refer to specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. We call the definite article anda/an the indefinite article.
The = definite article
A/an = indefinite article
A / an

These are indefinite article, used when referring to one thing among many, or when we do not know whom we mean. The only difference is that an is used before pronouns or adjectives that start with vowels, and the article to be used before those beginning with consonants.
