Indefinite Article
In English, there are 3 articles. They are the
adjectives a, an and the.
The is called the definite article as it is used to indicate something specific;
whereas, a and an are called the indefinite articles
as they are used to indicate something unspecific.
Examples:
Would you
like a pear? (an unspecific pear, i.e., any
pear)
Would you
like the pear? (a specific pear)
