Articles – a

A is used in front of singular countable nouns (a person, animal or thing) which are not specific.

We don’t use a before uncountable or plural nouns.

If a noun starts with a consonant sound (b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, etc.), “a” comes before the noun.

Examples; a cat, a bird, a child, a doctor
