The Articles "A" and "An" are known as Indefinite articles while "The" is called Definite Article. The article "The" specifically indicates a particular thing, place, or person and hence known as Definite Articles. Rules for Indefinite Articles: A vs An Indefinite articles A or An is used before singular countable nouns. The rules for using "A" or "An" are as follows: "An" is used before a word beginning with a vowel sound. For example, An orange. Here, the noun orange starts with a vowel "o"."A" is used before a word beginning with a consonant sound. For Example, A girl. Here the noun girl starts with a consonant "g".Few words even though start with a consonant, while pronunciation, begins with a vowel sound. So the article "An" should be used. For example, An hour. An honest man. Here, the noun hour starts with h but the "h" is not pronounced.Similarly, Few words even though start with a vowel, while pronunciation, begins with a consonant sound. So the article "A" should be used. For example, A University. A one-eyed man. Here, the noun University starts with u, but that u is pronounced as yu. Rules for Definite Article: The The rules for using definite article "the" are as follows: Used before a singular noun that specifies a whole class.

For Example, In the sentence, I ate a mango yesterday. The mango was juicy and delicious. Here in the first sentence mango is referred and in the 2nd-second sentence, the same specific mango is indicated, hence "the" is used in the second sentence.Used before large regions, countries, deserts, peninsulas, seas, gulfs, canals, oceans, lakes, rivers, famous books, mountain ranges, groups of islands, famous statues, unique things, musical instruments, etc. For Example The Atlantic Ocean.Used before superlatives during the comparison.
