Question

Find out whether the underlined words in the given sentence is ‘definite’ or ‘indefinite’ articles:
The terrorists were killed in an encounter. 

  1. Definite
  2. Indefinite

hintHint:

Articles are either definite (the) or indefinite (a, an). They go before a noun to indicate the type of reference being made by a noun.

The correct answer is: Indefinite


    The is the definite article and a/an are indefinite articles . The indefinite article is used when we don't specify the things or people,  a is used before a consonant sound and an is used before a vowel sound. 'The terrorists were killed in an encounter', here 'the' is definite article and 'an' is an indefinite article.
