Those little words!

Jemima Burke

Sometimes it is the little words that give us the biggest headaches! Words like
a, an, the
are easy to forget when Japanese speakers talk English.

That's because these words, called ARTICLES, are not a feature of the Japanese language. So it takes an extra effort to remember to use them and learn the rules around them.
 
Keep practising because it can make a big difference when you are speaking and writing and you remember these little words!
