In English we have three types of articles:

2. A

3. An

The article: "The"

You use the definite article "the" to refer to a specific person or thing.

• The president gave a speech.
  or
• The books are on the table.

The article: "The"

You use the definite article "the" to refer to a specific person or thing.

• The president gave a speech.
  or
• The books are on the table.

You leave out THE when you talk about persons or things in general.

 

You also leave it out with certain buildings (hospital, church, school, university, prison) if you are there for its specific purpose.

Mister Hulst is at ............ prison.

1. The

3. in

Oh no it looks like mister Jackson is ..........
prison.

1. at
2. in
3. the
4. -

A or an when do we use an indefinite article?

We use an indefinite article when you are not referring to someone or specific thing.

A or An is all about the sound of the next word

Part 2 imperatives

Why do we use an imperative?

The imperative is used to give directions and orders, and to advise and warn people. 

To make an imperative, you use the infinitive form of the verb.

If you want to make it negative

use DON'T or DO NOT before your verb.

DO NOT MOVE !
or
DO NOT TALK DURING THE EXPLANATION OF MISTER HULST!!!!!
