Determiners adalah kata-kata yang datang di awal frasa kata benda. Mereka memberi tahu kami apakah frasa kata benda spesifik atau umum.
Specific determiners adalah:
- the definite article: the
- possessives: my, your, his, her, its, our, their, whose
- demonstratives: this, that, these, those
Anda dapat menggunakan specific determiner ketika Anda yakin pendengar / pembaca tahu persis apa yang Anda maksudkan:
Contoh:
Can you pass me the salt, please?
Thank you very much for your letter.
Whose coat is this?
Look at those lovely flowers.
