There are two kinds of articles: the indefinite article (a an) and the definite article (the). In addition, there are specific occasions in which articles are not used, commonly known as "zero articles".
Classification of articles.
Articles are divided into indefinite articles, definite articles, negative articles, partial articles, and zero articles, and zero articles, with a zero article referring to situations where articles are not used.
A definite article (e.g. the English the) is used to qualify that the noun that follows the article is a particular thing;
An indefinite article (e.g. a an in English) is used to indicate that the noun that follows the article refers to one of a particular class of things, but it doesn't matter which one it is;
Partial articles (e.g., du de la in French) are used to indicate that the amount of noun that follows this article is indefinite;
A negative article (e.g. kein in German) is used to indicate that the noun that follows the article does not exist.
In addition, in some languages (e.g. French), the masculine and feminine forms of the same noun, the singular and plural forms are pronounced exactly the same, and the use of the preceding different articles allows the listener to distinguish the different forms of the noun.
Regardless of whether the qualifier is placed before or after the qualifier or phrase, the qualifier is always worn like a hat on the head of the definite, so such words, such as the, a, are called articles.
The indefinite article indicates a general reference and a general reference, the definite article indicates a specific reference, a specific reference, and a generic reference, and a zero article indicates a general reference to a person or thing or a general reference. a, an, only used in the singular countable noun to express the meaning of one, but does not emphasize the concept of number, only indicates that the noun is unspecific. The definite article the, which indicates the specific person of the noun, denotes this, that, these, and that.
It can be used in the singular and plural of countable nouns, and before uncountable nouns. then indicates other words or proper nouns that are nominalized, so the singular and plural can be used. Plural countable nouns and uncountable nouns are preceded by an article, and they are also used in general terms, which some grammar experts call a zero article.
