Mastering A, An, The - English Articles Solved: An English Grammar Study Guide

Mastering A, An, The - English Articles Solved - An English Grammar Study Guide

Semantics is the study of the meaning of words. Meaning defines grammar, usage, and idioms. If you learn the meaning of elementary English grammar words, you will improve your use of a, an, and the. All you have to do is learn the meanings of these words and correct your mistakes while conversing with a native English speaker. Improving your use of the articles a, an, the is just that easy.

The semantics governing the articles a, an, the is one of the most difficult English grammar constructions for students of English as a Second Language (ESL) to learn. Misunderstanding these articles is the cause of a significant number of mistakes made by speakers of languages without such constructions. These languages include Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Iranian, and many Eastern European languages. These languages all lack a, an, the grammar.

In this book I attempt to illuminate the meaning of these articles for intermediate and advanced level students of ESL. The language used in the study guide is written in elementary English to ensure that beginners and intermediates easily understand its content. Some a, an, the examples are provided to encourage the reader to think about the definitions in a real context.

Best regards,
Douglas Porter
