    This is one of the best explanations I have seen of the Definite and Indefinite Articles. I will be recommending it to my students.

    In this video, there are two mistakes: We use "The" before certain countries, such as "the United States" and "the United Kingdom," because they include common words, not because there is only one country with that name. While we have only one "Spain" and one "France," we don't typically refer to them as the Spain and the France! The verb "bite" is conjugated as follows: Present Simple: bite Past Simple: bit Past Participle: bitten So, the correct sentence is: "I got bitten by a dog," instead of "I got bit by a dog." I hope this helps clarify the points you mentioned.

    English has two types of articles: the indefinite article, and the definite article. The indefinite article is a / an, and the definite article is the. We use these articles (or no article) before nouns, and the article we choose depends on the type of noun (singular / plural / countable / uncountable) and the pronunciation of the noun.

    Thank you for great teaching. I'm confused about using 'the' in front of proper nouns. For example, I have to say 'the BBC' or 'the CW', but we don't put 'the' in front of ABC. What's the difference between those proper nouns? I'm eager to know the answer!!

  • @LearnAcademicEnglish

    I think it just depends on the name. The US because the name is "the United States" but ABC does not have "the" as part of the name. My advice would be to memorize when the acronym includes "the" but don't worry about it too much. For example, we often just say "BBC."
