どう使い分ける⁉冠詞の使い分け方2【英語で学ぶ英会話】
Hello everyone, just buttoning my shirt here. I might have had that one before, “button” and “unbutton” but I’m not here to talk about buttoning my shirt today. I am back here again to talk about articles again. Welcome back to the channel everyone. My name’s Scott. Now previously, I’m not sure exactly when it was uploaded but I did a video. I made a a primer on article usage, basics so I hope you watched that one. As far as using “a” to introduce something and “the” to follow so this would be for me, Article Usage Part Two. Part Two on Article Usage but I’m gonna keep everything short and simple. That’s my plan so when you use “a” and “the” to talk about problems with your health. These are the ideas today. Before that though, I do want to talk about “a” and “the” for other usages as well. Or not when to use “a” or “the” and sometimes the problem comes up where students may put an article in there when it comes to a meal. The word “meal” itself is fine. A meal. “I have a big meal at six o’clock every day,” for example. Okay? That’s fine but when you have the words breakfast, lunch, and dinner, you actually don’t need any article in there at all. You don’t see “I have a dinner at 7 pm every night.” “I have dinner at 7 pm every night.” So you say in that case with breakfast, lunch, and dinner but you do not use an article when you talk about them in most cases. Now when do you use it? When you have put an adjective in there as well. Notice the difference so “I had dinner at 7 pm.” “I had a big dinner at 7 pm.” Now in that case, I put the article “a” in there because we have “big” but generally just remember breakfast, lunch, and dinner—you do not need to use an article or “the”. Now sometimes, you do when it comes to something outside breakfast, lunch, and dinner like a snack so “After class, I like to have a snack.” In that case, maybe some potato chips or an apple to keep it healthy. Banana and apples are healthier. So you say “a snack”. “I have a snack after class.” or “a drink” is possible so “After a long day, I like to have a drink to unwind.”, maybe relax. In that case, use “a drink”, have a drink in the evening or have a snack in the middle of the afternoon, okay? But just my point is breakfast, lunch, and dinner— do not need to use an article. A meal, you do. A meal, a snack, a drink but breakfast, lunch, dinner. Try to remember that everybody and you’ll be fine. Now, next up, I want to talk about is using the “a” or “the” or “an” for problems with your health. Now generally, most things we are going to use “a” and I’m going to go with the big four aches so a headache, a toothache, a stomachache and a backache. Sentence in that case, “I have a backache.” “I have a toothache.” “I have a headache.” Use an article “a” before that. Also for other things that are elements that are not so welcome. A rash–“I have a rash.” “I have a sore throat.” “I have a bruise.” A bruise is if I got hit by the baseball on my arm and it leaves like a purple and black mark. That’s a bruise. A rash, a sore throat, a bruise. A cold. “I have a cold.” I’ll get back to the cold and flu in a little bit but “I have a cold.” “I caught a cold.” Don’t catch a cold. Also if you have a pain so “I have a pain in my elbow” but you can also say “I have pain in my elbow” A pain being in the noun, a pain or pain. “I have pain in my elbow.” “I have a pain in my elbow.” “I have a pain in my back.” “I have pain in my back.” With or without “a” is fine. Now going back to “a” and “the” so it’s a cold but influenza, generally we say “flu” for short, is a special one so the flu. Notice the difference. “He has a cold.” vs. “He has the flu.” Okay? Some cases get “the” but they’re special cases. I’ll give you a couple here so the flu or if you feel cold, you have the chills and in some cases if you eat and drink too much, you have “the gout”, there’s a translation coming up here as well for that but you may want to check your dictionary: “the gout” — “g-o-u-t”. So the chills, the flu, the gout. Now when is an article not necessary? Well for example, “sunburn”. “I have sunburn.” Sun is too strong. I forgot my sunblock. “I have sunburn.” or a plural on muscles. “I have sore muscles from lifting up the heavy textbooks.” “I have sore muscles.” Without articles there. It’s a plural form as well. Also blood pressure, “I have high blood pressure.” No article necessary for that. Hopefully you don’t have high blood pressure because you may need to take medicine for that, don’t recommend it. So “I have sunburn.” or “I have sore muscles.” “I have high blood pressure.” No article on those. Many things do, most things do for trouble, troubles, health troubles you need articles in the “a” and sometimes “the.” I don’t go too deep into diseases in that case but generally, diseases don’t need an article so now a very terrible disease of course is cancer. “He has cancer”—no article is necessary there. I don’t want to wish that for anybody but for grammatical, grammatically correct English for diseases generally, you don’t need “a” or “an” or “the” but some cases you do like “the gout”, “the flu” or I should say though childhood diseases do get the article “the” so “the chicken pox” or “the measles”. Those cases for childhood diseases, you do get “the” is necessary. Just want to give you some ideas here, especially for meals and sicknesses. Two different ideas but how are the articles used in these situations? That was my point today. I hope you found it informative and you enjoyed it and you liked it and if you have any questions or comments, please ask me. I’d be very happy to see any questions or comments you have. Until then everybody, thanks for watching. We’ll be back here again soon. I’ll have articles coming again in the future. I don’t know when but in near future. Have a great day! We’ll see you back here again soon.
