James is my favorite teacher. I wish I had a class with you Mr.E Lol
ha love it bruh
This is one of the best vids on this topic
Hi James, I´m an english teacher and I have learned of you to make the classes nothing complicated, make them easy and with enthusiam. Thanks!!!
Do you have lesson in 2019?
Hi James, great video but...
'The' is NOT only for singular objects.
Examples:
The dog. The dogs. The pen. The pens. The man. The men. Singular and plural.
a & an are for singular objects.
Also...
a is followed by a consonant SOUND. an is followed by a vowel SOUND.
an hour The h is a consonant but not a consonant sound. Hour starts with a vowel SOUND....the same as our. (Crazy English!)
Thanks for THE video. It was A pleasure. THE pleasure was all mine. :)
So useful. You make this so easy to remember. Thanks for it James.
Your'e so goddamn better than my university teacher !!! Thanks.
Hello, James!
Thank you for all things stat you are doing! Your videos are really great, it helps me improve my English like an expensive private lessons. And it always pleasant to see how the quality of your videos ( production and so on) are improving.
I guess that you are super busy, but I think that it is a good idea to reshoot some old essential videos ( like that, for example) to make your content little better ( if it is possible)
kind regards! And thank you one more time for your work.
Omg, he has made this video since 13 years ago, it means when i was 3 years old, and now i'm 15 year old😭👍
2020 guys 😂
Me too
like this i was not in this planet I am 9 years old
Don’t worry guys. English is same :)
but you still kid😂
Hello, James!
Thank you for all things stat you are doing! Your videos are really great, it helps me improve my English like an expensive private lessons.
You are a great teacher. Fun to listen and easy to follow. Thanks.
Thanks for posting. Nice, clear lesson--will help me explain articles to my students.
You are really good teacher. I just discovered you and you are the best. You are talking fluently, clearly and I understand so many sentences. Thank you so much for videos. And keep going, please!
I like how you teach. that's why I started watching your video from the beginning. thanks a lot for the free tutorial.
He is awesome! And I hope I can improve my English!
Hi James, I am an native English speaker- but I love the lessons, because I realize how little I know of explaining English grammar. This topic is still challenging. We could say use an article when you can count something like: a dog (one dog, two dogs etc ) How about the word "weather" "The weather is nice today" That sounds right. but "one weather, two weathers " doesn't sound right. Or should we say "Weather is nice today" maybe, but never "A weather is nice today."
Thank you for this, I had this doubt and I read your text and I understood how I can use it.
Have a great day.
you are a great teacher Mr.James I started to watch all of your videos from the beginning I am a teacher too thanks for explaining in an easy way.
My name is Ismail, I'm glad to follow you, I'm from Yemen 🇾🇪
Hi James I just came across this video of yours. I think it's one of the best ones that explains articles. I teach English with an organization called Literacy Volunteers of America. (LVA) plus I have my own students on the side. I will be showing this video to the LVA staff and my students.
Your lessons and teaching methods are awesome. Thanks
Learning from the basics. Great lesson.
Thank you so much :) I’m having hard time using the articles, and my partner always corrects me when i use them incorrectly. But thank you for enlightening me :)
You're a very charming person and you know what you're doing! Thumbs up! You know, I live in Russia and I understand how difficult it is to study a foreign language whan you don't live in a country where this language is spoken. Your classess make up to it a lot!.
Greetings to you
Techer James ,
Thank you for your Time , Keep in going
What about countable and uncountable stuff, geographical use of THE (with names) , and omission of articles. I'm still learning and thought it'd be better if you include these topics to this lesson. Thanks for the great vid....
Thank you so much! ^^ Was a great lesson! Like I never saw before!
You are a great teacher. I think, i will improve my English because of you. God bless you.

2020 best teacher ever
What a pity about writing “your” instead of “you're” for “you are” on the board, but it does not detract from the lesson which is very clear and appreciated. Alexander Pope reminds us that to err is human.
an excellent lesson on article usage........Anand
thank you from Spain
Question: the preposition, 'an' apple could be mistaken for being an quanitiy adjective. How would this word, 'an' be an article, not a adjective?
You are really teacher. Nice.
I need a specific help on using "the". Still confuse on where and how to look when it comes to Vowel and consonant! It would really appreciate it if you can help me on this issue :)
Vid #3, ARTICLES
- singular things
A - one/any/ for general things / not everyone knows what you're talking about/ AN goes with VOWELS
E.g.
A cup, a cap, a cat, an elephant, an infant, a European, a university (you sound), the sun, the Earth, the lesson with James was cool
THE - for specific things / the people you talk to know
Amazing video
I should say this is a good lesson then..!!
I wish articles were that easy... there're still much more rules to study about articles like means of transport, institutions in society, forms of entertainment, musical instruments, etc.
thanks.
that's help me a lots
Aww! You're very good ! Lavet! Tthou' I already know that all. Thanks James! ^_^
Hey ........thanks you very much ...its is ga great help....thanks for that
James is the best. Hugs.
GUYS ONE MORE THING THUMPS IT UP SO EVERY ONE CAN SEE. what i learned from my teacher that you also use (The) in example : a country starts with United you will say it like, The United States of America or The United kingdom or you can also use (The) in example names of mountains, names of oceans, names of seas. example:The Pacific ocean or The Dead sea or The mount everest. guys hope this helped im still in high school im not a teacher or something thumb this up so every one can see!!
thanks much excellent teacher
Thank dear! U’re really cool!
you helped me so much, thanks a lot man

The: It is used for something we know and /a :is used for something we have no idea about, but if a word begins with a vowel we use an ;So isn't it ?
