    This document discusses the use of definite and indefinite articles in English. It explains that articles are words like "a", "an", and "the" that indicate a noun is being used as a noun without describing it. The three articles are "a", "an", and "the". "A" is used before singular nouns starting with consonants, "an" is used before singular nouns starting with vowels. "The" is used when referring to something specific that has already been mentioned or is clear from the context. Some general nouns like environment or weather require "the" while others like dogs or elephants do not require an article.
