a/an/the
"a" used in front of singular countable noun.
We don`t use "a" before uncountable nouns or
plural nouns.
a If a noun sturts with a consonant sound
(b,c,d,f,g,h,j,k etc.), "a" comes before the noun.
E.g. a dog, a pen, a teacher, a boy, a lesson, a
website, etc.
I usually teach English at a language school in the summer. I often can’t enjoy the
summer because I am so busy. So next summer, I’m not planning to work. Instead,
I’m going to have a proper summer holiday. I’m going to buy a campervan and drive
around Ireland. I’m going to visit lots of beautiful beaches and learn to surf! I’m
mostly going to travel alone, but I will visit friends. One friend, Cathy, is a school
teacher, so she has a long summer holiday, so hopefully, we will spend a week or two
together. Another Irish friend, Joe, has a new house there, so I’ll stay with him for a
few days and help him paint the rooms.
