article Definition and 359 Threads

An article is any member of a class of dedicated words that are used with noun phrases to mark the identifiability of the referents of the noun phrases. The category of articles constitutes a part of speech.
In English, both "the" and "a(n)" are articles, which combine with nouns to form noun phrases. Articles typically specify the grammatical definiteness of the noun phrase, but in many languages, they carry additional grammatical information such as gender, number, and case. Articles are part of a broader category called determiners, which also include demonstratives, possessive determiners, and quantifiers. In linguistic interlinear glossing, articles are abbreviated as ART.

    From the Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/interactive/2023/nasa-jpl-space-exploration-challenges/?itid=sr_3 Does anyone disagree with the idea “that the lab simply has too many missions and not enough experienced engineers to pull them off” ?
