Answer:
A common noun in the singular number always requires an article before it. But a plural common noun does not require an article always. A plural common noun can have the article ‘the’ if we want to particularise that noun.
Example:
I saw a snake. (Refers to a random snake)
I saw snakes in a zoo. (No article is required)
I have seen the snake again. (Refers to the snake I have already seen earlier)
I have seen the snakes again before leaving the zoo. (Refers to the particular snakes of the zoo which I saw earlier.)
Rule 2:
The choice between the two indefinite articles – a & an – is determined by sound. Words beginning with consonant sounds precede ‘a’ and words beginning with vowel sounds precede ‘an’. There are some special cases also. For instance,
a university, a union, a useful book, etc.
a one-dollar note, a one-man army, etc.
an MA, a BA, an LLB, a BSC, etc.
Rule 3:
A or an - sometimes makes a Proper Noun a Common Noun. Proper nouns generally do not take any articles, but when a proper noun needs to be used as a common noun, you must bring a or an - for it.
Example:
He thinks he is a Shakespeare. (Here, ‘Shakespeare’ does not refer to the actual person but someone like him.)
He seems to be an Australian. (‘Australia’ is a proper noun but ‘Australian’ is a common noun because there is only one Australia but a million of Australians.)
Rule 4:
Sometimes indefinite articles are used to refer the number ‘one’/’each’/’per’.
Example:
I earned a thousand dollar in that job. (One thousand dollar)
I have a car. (One car)
It goes 50 miles an hour. (Per Hour)
Rule 5:
Indefinite articles often precede descriptive adjectives.
Example:
He is a good boy.
What a nice car!
Rule 6:
‘A’ sometimes comes before determiners, for example, a few, a little, a lot of, a most, etc. but in the case of many, a or an - comes after.
Example:
I have a few friends coming over.
There is a little milk in the jar.
Many a fan welcomed
