Singular nouns
Singular, countable nouns always have an article – a/an or the (or another determiner –
my, your, this, that, etc.).
We use the – the definite article – when the listener already knows which thing we are
talking about because it was mentioned before or because there's only one of them.
We went to the zoo and saw the kangaroos. (These are the particular kangaroos in that
zoo – not kangaroos in general.)
