6. ARTICLES “A, AN, THE” & PREPOSITIONS
I. ARTICLES “A, AN, THE”
♥ USE 1.
Mạo từ “A” được dùng để đứng trước một danh từ số đếm được ở dạng số ít, nó được bắt đầu bằng một phụ âm.
Examples: + He is a teacher. + She doesn’t own a car
♥ USE 2.
Mạo từ “An” được dùng để đứng trước một danh từ đếm được ở số ít, nó được bắt đầu bằng một nguyên âm.
Examples: + He is an actor. + She didn’t get an invitation.
♥ USE 3.
Hãy nhớ rằng mạo từ “A” hoặc “AN” đều có nghĩa một cái gì đó đơn lẻ. Vì vậy bạn không thể dùng nó với danh từ số nhiều được.
Examples: + I saw bears in Yellowstone National Park.
♥ USE 4.
Nếu có một một tính từ hay có sự kết hợp trạng từ-tính từ đứng trước một danh từ thì “A” hoặc “An” sẽ phụ thuôc vào chữ cái đầu tiên của tính từ hoặc trạng từ đó. Hãy theo dõi ví dụ sau:
Examples: + He is an excellent teacher. + I saw a really beautiful eagle at the zoo.
♥ USE 5.
Sử dụng giới từ “A” trước những từ như “European” hoặc “university” vì nhìn có vẻ 2 từ này bắt đầu bằng một nguyên âm nhưng hãy để ý, chữ cái đầu tiên khi ta phát âm nó lại là một phụ âm (trong trường hợp này nó là phụ âm “j”). Hãy nhớ rằng, việc phát âm các từ cũng rất quan trọng. Ví dụ “1” được đánh vần là O-N-E; tuy nhiên nó được phát âm giống như là “won” nên nó sẽ bắt đầu bằng phụ âm “W” chứ không phải là nguyên âm “O”.
Examples: + She has a euro.
♥ USE 6.
Cũng tương tự như Use 5, chúng ta sử dụng “An” trước những từ như “hour”, nhìn có vẻ nó bắt đầu bằng một phụ âm nhưng hãy cẩn thận vì khi bạn phát âm từ này nó lại bắt đầu bằng nguyên âm. Hãy nhớ là việc bạn phát âm chuẩn cũng rất quan trọng trong phần xác định mạo từ “A” và “An” nhé.
Examples: + I only have an hour for lunch.
+ Does his name begin with an “F”? Sounds like “eff”. (Tên anh ấy có phải bắt đầu bởi chữ “F” không?)- nó phát âm giống như “eff” chứ không phải là “F” đâu nên hãy cẩn thận .
♥ USE 7.
Một số từ như “herb” hoặc “hospital” hơi rắc rối bởi vì chúng được phát âm khác nhau trong tiếng anh. Với ngữ điệu của người Mỹ thì phụ âm “h” trong từ “herb” là âm câm nên người Mỹ thường nói là “an herb”. Đa số ngữ điệu của người Anh thì từ “herb” có được phát âm có phụ âm “h”, người anh hay nói là “a herb”. Hay như từ “hospital” với người anh thì phụ âm “h” là âm câm, thay vì dùng “a hospital” họ thường dùng là “an hospital”. some British will say “an hospital” instead of “a hospital”.
♥ USE 8.
Trong tiếng anh, một số danh từ không đếm được như: information(thông tin), air(không khí), advice(lời khuyên), salt(muối)and fun(sự hài hước). Với những danh từ không đếm được đó chúng ta không sử dụng mạo từ “A” hoặc “An”.
Examples: + She gives good advice
♥ USE 9
“A” và “AN” được gọi là mạo từ không xác định. Chúng ta sử dụng mạo từ “A” hoặc “(AN)” khi chúng ta nói về những thứ mang nghĩa chung chung, không rõ ràng.
Examples: + I need a phone. + Mark wants a bicycle.
– Sử dụng “A” hoặc “An” được sử dụng để nói về những cái gì mới, chưa từng biết hoặc lần đầu tiên giới thiệu với người nghe. Nó cũng được sử dụng khi nói sự tồn tại của một cái gì đó.
Examples: + I have a car. (Tôi có một chiếc ô tô – Chiếc ô tô được giới thiệu lần đầu tiên.)
+ Tom is a teacher. (Tom là một giáo viên – Đây là một thông tin mới đối với người nghe.)
– Tương tự như vậy, sử dụng “A” hoặc “An” để giới thiệu một loại gì đó mà bạn đang nói đến.
Examples: + That is an excellent book. (Đây là một cuốn sách tuyệt vời – Miêu tả một loại sách.)
+ Do you live in a big house? (Bạn sống ở một ngôi nhà lớn à? – Hỏi về kiểu nhà.)
NOTE: Bạn không thể sử dụng “A” hoặc “An” với danh từ số nhiều vì nó chỉ mang nghĩa đơn lẻ.
