📝Grammar: Articles - a / an, the, no article
Use **a** when you say what something is for the first time. I see **a car**. Use **an** before a vowel sound: a, e, i, o, u. It is **an airport**. Use **the** when you talk about the same thing again. I see **a bus**. **The bus** is big. Use **the** when it is clear which one you mean. **The station** is near my house. Use **the** for the only one, like **the moon**. We say **the train** when we both know the train. I have **the ticket**. Use no article to talk about things in general. **Bikes** are cheap. **Roads** are long. Use no article with **home**, **work**, and **school** after
