The article discusses the different types of articles in English - definite and indefinite articles. The definite article "the" is used to refer to a specific or particular noun. The indefinite articles "a" and "an" are used to refer to nonspecific or unidentified nouns. The use of "a" or "an" depends on the sound of the following word - "a" is used before consonant sounds while "an" is used before vowel sounds, even if the word begins with a silent "h".

Preface

I feel immense pleasure in presenting first content enriched edition of General


English to the esteemed readers.
In the modern era, most of the competitive exams like SSC, CGL, CPO, CHSL,
MTS, STENO, JHT, CDS, NDA, Airforce, Navy and Banking have English as an
indispensable unit. In competitive exams, English language incorprates three
important sections i.e. Grammar, Vocabulary and Comprehension to examine the
proficiency of aspirants in understanding of English language.
Hence candidates have to adopt systematic and interative strategies of learning
to qualify these competitive examinations. This book serves the purpose.
The salient features of this book are:
Ü In this book, grammar rules have been written in a very lucid manner for
better understanding of the subject.
Ü Sufficiently large number of questions asked in various competitive exams
(conducted from 2017 to 2023) have been kept in each chapter to
provide rigorous practice.
Ü Vocabulary portion (Antonyms, Synonyms, One word Substitution and
Idioms & Phrases) has been segregated in the levels : Easy, Moderate
and Advance.
Although stringent efforts have been made to keep this book error free, yet any
error has inadvertently crept in due to oversight, feel free to give suggestions and
valuable feedback for the improvement of this book on our whatsapp number
9818489147.
If this book proves to be helpful in your success, then surely it will be a proud
moment for us.
