What is a determiner in grammar?
A determiner is a word that comes before a noun or noun phrase. A determiner identifies whether the noun or noun phrase is general or specific.
Example of a Determiner:
Let’s use the word “dog” for an example.
“Dog” with determiners:
- A dog barked.
- The dog barked.
- According to Renfroe, his dog Savanna was able to pick up the intruder’s unique scent with no more than an “open air sniff” of the general vicinity in which he’d been an hour earlier. –The Washington Post
In the first example, we do not know which dog barked. The determiner, “a,” is general in nature.
In the second example, a specific dog barked. The determiner, “the,” is specific in nature.
