The language focus is on articles (a, an, the) which is an area of English that lots of learners have problems with as they are often used differently in your first language or don't exist at all. More specifically, we are going to focus on how we use articles when we are talking in a general sense and when we are talking about a specific thing. Your task is to complete some sentences and use the correct article. As always, we also have a new football phrase for you to guess. Enjoy!
