πŸ“Grammar: 3B: Articles - a / an, the, no article

Use **a** or **an** when you talk about one thing for the first time. We say **a boss** or **an interview** when we say them for the first time. Use **an** before a vowel sound. Say **an interview**, not a interview. Also use **a** or **an** to say what something is. For example: **a promotion** is a better job with more pay, and **a deadline** is the last day to finish work. Use **the** when you both know which one you mean. First you say **a desk**, then you say **the desk** because we know which desk. Use **the** with the only one, and with superlatives. For example: **the best salary**
