Interesting video. The is used a lot so it is good to see when it is not needed. I liked this video yes!!!!👍😅

[veronicaash]

Hi! Came here looking for info after finding your singing channel and falling in love with it 😍 Is there any hope you will start posting there again? Maybe once every few weeks? 🙏 I felt so inspired and happy that I finally found a vocal coach that I absolutely love ❤️ And then I saw that the last video was 2 years ago 😢😭🥺 Thank you anyway for all the videos there! They are just awesome! And I loved that you're British because I strive to sound more British and having an American vocal coach wouldn't be as great. So, love you! Just think about it 😍🙏🤗

[nedayektapour]

How about 'all "the" time' in 1:20?

[valeriyaberezhnova]

I'm waiting for this amazing video

The lesson taught us how important this article is. Let me add a little bit of confusion to Anna's clarity. The word 'the' is also known as an adjective as it gives description to a noun. One may say that the word 'the' specifies.
I see the picture on the screen more clearly now.
We will start at the beginning.
I will take the dog for a walk.
The day began with a lesson on articles.
The hills look beautiful in the winter.

The other articles: a, an:
You need a cup of tea.
Would you care for an orange?

This lesson is a bit short still very informative. I think it would be more useful to make the video about differences of using both "a" and "the" articles.

[skdhiman]

And, when we need to pronounce it "di" and "da" ?? Tell something more about it in next video 😊 thanks for this video teacher 😇
