Explanation:
We know that ‘a’, ‘an’ and ‘the’ are called Articles, which are the most important part of speech.
The articles are generally used to point out people or things. They are used before a noun.
These articles can be classified into two types namely 1. Indefinite articles and 2. Definite articles
Indefinite Article :
- ‘A’ and ‘An’ are known as indefinite articles which do not refer to any particular person, place or thing.
- They are used with singular nouns.
- We use "a" before a word beginning with a consonant sound such as a book, a cat, a doll, a fan, a girl, a zebra etc.
- We use "an" before a word beginning with a vowel sound such as an egg, an eagle, an ant, an apple, an orange, an engineer, an elephant, or an ox.
Definite Article
- "The" is called a definite article which refers to a particular person, place or thing.
- It can be used with singular and plural nouns.
Use of ‘The’:
1. When we talk about a particular person or a thing or one already referred to.
2. A noun when is only one of something or is unique of its own kind.
3. The Superlatives
4. The noun that represents the whole class.
5. The numerical positions
6. The names of seas, rivers, mountain ranges, deserts, canals, groups of islands, books, trains, ships and monuments.
Therefore the correct answers are
1. the, the
2. the
3. the
4. X Hindi. (No article)
5. (No article) X, a
