Cách sử dụng
As an English learner, it's important to understand the context of when to use the word 'the'. 'The' is a definite article, which means it's used to refer to specific people, places, things, or ideas. In other words, when we're referring to something that is unique or specific, we use 'the'. For example, if we say "I'm going to the store", we use 'the' because there is specifically one store that we're referring to. However, if we say "I'm going to a store", we don't use 'the' because we're not referring to a specific store, but rather any store. Another example could be "I'm going to the beach", which means we're referring to a specific beach, whereas "I'm going to a beach" could mean any beach. In summary, 'the' is used when we're referring to something specific, while 'a' or 'an' (in the case of singular nouns) is used when we're referring to something in general or any one of a group.
