Question

why don't you go and get............... medicine​

Answer 1

The blank needs to be filled with a suitable determiner:

Why don't you go and get the medicine?

• The correct determiner used for the blank is 'the', which is an article.

• Articles can be of two types- definite(the) and indefinite( a, an).

• Definite articles are used to denote something specific( as in the given sentence, refers to a specific medicine), unlike indefinite articles.

There are also other types of determiners which are as follows:

1. Ordinals- first, second, etc.

2. Demonstratives- these, those, etc.

3. Possessives- her, my, etc.

4. Quantifiers- many, much, etc.

Answer 2

Why don't you go and get some medicine

Explanation:

• Determiners are words which comes at the start of the noun hence basically introduces a noun.
• The determiner "some" is used before a noun and it expresses the amount/quantity of a noun. Also, "some" is an unknown/unstated amount/quantity of something (the noun).
• Some is used in Affirmative sentences, Questions to ask for something, and questions to offer  something.

When we use "some" in Affirmative sentence as in the above sentence

(countable nouns).

• We use "some" before a countable noun  (the plural form) to describe more than one unit of the countable noun.  In such case we use "some" -(i)  when there are "too many" to count and it is not important  (ii) We do not want/need to "state the number" specifically.
• For example, when there are say  around 40 apples in a basket. In fact, we don't know if the exact number is 40, since there is so many  to count, and however it doesn't matter too. In that case we say, “There are some apples in the basket.”

(uncountable nouns)

• Used in an affirmative sentence describes an unspecified/unknown amount,  and uncountable noun is always in the "singular form", like in the above example, "some medicine".
• Other examples, Rohan had asked Ria to get him some water; There is some pasta kept in the fridge.
