Articles In English Language

• There are three articles in English language which are a, an and the.
• We use the article 'a' before common words which do not begin with a vowel sound.
• We use article 'an' before common words that begin with a vowel sound.
• We use article 'the' for specified nouns.
• The word 'used' although begins with a vowel but the syllable sound is of 'y' which is not an vowel. Hence, 'a' will be used in the above sentence.
