About a Stereotypes

Today I was thinking about a stereotypes.
Every day we hear a lot of a information about a other countries. And only a small part of the information is a true.
The day before yesterday, I laughed with my students. About a bears, balalaikas, and very cold weather.


 

I think the part about very cold (winter) weather is generally true!

 

The indefinite article "a" is used only before singular nouns:  "Ivan owns a balalaika."  Do NOT use "a" before plural nouns:  "Ivan owns balalaikas."

 

"a" can also appear before other words that modify a singular noun:  "Ivan owns a very beautiful balalaika."  Do NOT use "a" before the other words if the noun is plural:  "Ivan owns very beautiful balalaikas."

 

If the singular noun begins with a vowel or silent "h", then "a" becomes "an."  "I'm eating an apple."  "He will arrive in an hour."
