#sharkarticles are here again guys
Articles: A, An, The, Zero Article
💭ZERO ARTICLE. PART 1:
🧠With uncountable and plural nouns when we talk about them in a general way
Tea is more popular than coffee
💭With some singular nouns referring to institutions(school, college, hospital, church, university, work, prison)
a) My son goes to school
b) He was sent to prison at a young age
(a purpose)
❗️BUT:
If it’s the other reason to go to the prison, school etc we should use an article
a) I went to the school to pick him up
b) He visited the prison to drop off a package
То есть он не совершал криминал, не едет учиться в школу, у него другие цели. Поэтому нужен артикль
🧠With most countries
We went on holiday to Switzerland
❗️BUT:
The UK, the USA, the Netherlands, the Dominican Republic, the Philippines
🦈Part 2 will be on Wednesday
