Grammar Lesson #1 Nouns (Count and Non-count)
| There are more nouns in the English language than any other part of speech. We use the article “a” in front of words that begin with a consonant. We use the article “an” in front of words that begin with a vowel. If the word is plural we use “the” in front of them.
Use these notes to practice using these articles. Note: All words that end in an “s” are pronounced like an /s/ or /z/ or /iz/. It takes practice to learn and master these sounds. For non-count nouns (like milk) you do not use “a” or “an”. You use “some” or the other words listed. Click here for practice: count-and-non-count-nouns-_119.RTF |
