 Question
Fill in the blank with the appropriate article: a, an, or the.

    

There are only three articles in English: a, an, and the.

1) "a" and "an" are indefinite articles. They are used to indicate something unspecific. "an" is used when the first sound of the next word is a vowel sound.

E.g.
There is a ball on the ground.
I need an umbrella.

2) "The" is the definite article. We use it when we have already mentioned the thing

E.g.
