English Grammar Explanations - Articles The 3 articles in English are a, an and the. The learner has to decide noun-by-noun which one of the articles to use*. In fact, there are 4 choices to make, because sometimes no article is necessary.

Uncount nouns You cannot say a/an with an uncount noun.You cannot put a number in front of an uncount noun. Count nouns You can put a number in front of a count noun. Note: The above rules apply whether there is or there is not an adjective in front of the noun.Some nouns can be either count or uncount, depending on the context and meaning: Do you have paper?

Prepositions: Locators in Time and Place A preposition describes a relationship between other words in a sentence. In itself, a word like "in" or "after" is rather meaningless and hard to define in mere words. For instance, when you do try to define a preposition like "in" or "between" or "on," you invariably use your hands to show how something is situated in relationship to something else. Prepositions are nearly always combined with other words in structures called prepositional phrases. Prepositional phrases can be made up of a million different words, but they tend to be built the same: a preposition followed by a determiner and an adjective or two, followed by a pronoun or noun (called the object of the preposition). Consider the professor's desk and all the prepositional phrases we can use while talking about it. You can sit before the desk (or in front of the desk).
