• could you get me a kilogram of tea, please

Answer 2

"a"

Here we use an 'article.'

Articles have two categories:

Definite Articles:

When we want to direct the reader or listener to a specific noun, we can use the definite article "The."

Indefinite Articles:

Indefinite articles are the opposites of definite articles in terms of meaning. When referring to the generic noun, we utilise the indefinite article "A" or "An." It specifies that the noun is ambiguous, general, and indefinite.  

The word "An" is used for nouns that begin with a vowel or a vowel sound. The word "A" is used for consonants.
