Hi kids, today we will learn about

Determiners. There are different types
of determiners. We will discuss
Definite and Indefinite Articles in
this session.
At the end of the lesson, we will

learn about usage of different types
of determiners.
1. Determiners

refer to specific people or things.
Determiners may take the form of:
• Articles (definite and indefinite)

• Quantifiers
• Possessive, demonstrative and interrogative
determiners

2. The Definite Article
DEFINITION
The definite article is the word the. It can

be used before countable and uncountable
nouns.
EXAMPLE
Lizzi: Shall we watch the play or the opera?
The is a definite article. It can be used before

countable and uncountable nouns.
The is used:
Before a noun which has been mentioned

before.
• Our pet cat ate a fish. The fish was

Before the names of seas, rivers, oceans,
Togo’s dinner.
mountain ranges and famous landmarks.
• The Esplanade is located near the mouth

of the Singapore River.
Before a superlative.
• He is the most outstanding singer in

the choir.
Before a noun which is defined by a phrase.
• The boys in white shirts are my

classmates.
Before a unique noun.
• The sun rises slowly.
3. The Indefinite Article
DEFINITION
The indefinite article is the word a (or an

when it helps pronunciation). It is used
before a noun to describe it as something
non-specific.
EXAMPLE
Jimmy: Would you prefer to watch a play or an opera?
A and an are indefinite articles.
We use a or an:
Before singular countable nouns.
• He wants to be a dentist when he grows

up.
• She wishes to be an accountant when she
grows up.
10
Before collective nouns.
• A parliament of owls flew out from the

forest to hunt for food.
• An army of ants swarmed around the
plate of cookies.
With certain numbers.
a hundred a thousand a billion
With certain measurements.
a lot a piece a box of a tank of

(of) of
a a few $5 a once a
little kilogram week
A is usually used before nouns that begin with a
consonant sound while an is usually used before nouns
that begin with a vowel sound.
• A television
• A mischievous child
• An invitation
• An onion
Never use a or an before uncountable or plural

nouns.
REMEMBER
x a rice
x a money
x an eggs
x an inns
11
There are some special cases which we have to pay
attention to.
We use a before words beginning with u or eu which

sounds like you, and o which sounds like won.
• A European nation
• A uniform
• A one-sided opinion
We use an before words beginning with a silent h.
• An hour

1. Quantifiers

A quantifier is a word or phrase which is

used before a noun to indicate the amount
or quantity.

Some, many, a lot of and a few are examples of

quantifiers.
We use adjectives of quantity to show the amount or

number of things. They are also known as quantifiers.
They are placed before nouns.
30
These quantifiers are used with countable
nouns.

oxygen as the stadium was crowded.
many There were so many bargain-hunters
at the sale!
(a) few Few people are here today due to the
school examinations.
Add a few drops of lemon juice into

both Both Smarty and Naughty were
disappointed with the result of the
writing competition.
another Do you have another DVD?
either Either Team A or Team B will qualify

Possessive, Demonstrative and
Interrogative determiners in this
session.

learn about the usage of various
possessive, demonstrative and
interrogative determiners.
1. Possessive Determiner
DEFINITION
A possessive determiner is a type of

function word used in front of a noun to
express possession or belonging.
Possessive determiners indicate ownership. We use

them before the things belonging to a person or
an animal. They are placed before nouns and are
also known as possessive objectives.
There are three groups of possessive

determiners.
Groups Possessive Determiners
First person my, our
Second person your
Third person his, her, its, their
47
EXAMPLE
• My brother hurt his wrist while playing

basketball.
• Shall we discuss the project at your house?
• Diva could hardly contain her excitement when she
saw the puppy coming out of its cage.
• Our parents are going to Shanghai for a holiday.
This is their first overseas trip in 12 years!
2. Demonstrative Determiner
DEFINITION
A Demonstrative is a determiner or
a pronoun that points to a particular noun
or to the noun it replaces.
We use Demonstrative determiners to point out the

exact noun we are referring to. They are placed
before nouns and are also known as demonstrative
adjectives.
Near Far
For singular this that
nouns
For plural these those
nouns
EXAMPLE
• This room is the Science laboratory. That room

over there is the computer lab.
• These dresses are as pretty as those dresses that
we saw in the other shop.
48
3. Interrogative Determiner
DEFINITION
Interrogative determiners are determiners

that formulate direct or indirect questions
and exclamations.
We use Interrogative determiners such as which,

what and whose to ask questions about a
particular noun. They are also known as
interrogative adjectives.
We put interrogative determiners before a

noun.
• Which dressing table do you prefer?
• What is the title of this play?
• Whose idea is it to play in the kitchen?
Which is used with of before a plural noun.
• Which of these pictures is painted by you?

• Which of the twins is going for piano lesson
later?
• Which of the movies will be premiering first?
The verb that comes after the plural noun is

always singular.
