A Reminder about Determiners

Determiners help to specify or identify the noun or noun phrase they modify. They are a type of modifier that precedes a noun and provides crucial information about the noun's number, gender, specificity, and possession. Determiners include articles (such as "a," "an," and "the"), demonstratives (such as "this" and "that"), possessives (such as "my," "your," and "their"), and quantifiers (such as "some," "any," and "many").
