Articles (Places and Geographical Names) - Lesson 24, Part 1 - English Grammar

Topic: Using articles with places and geographical names. In Part 1, guidelines are presented to help learners understand the use of the definite article (THE) and the zero article (no article) when referring to places and specific geographical locations. Part 2 will summarize the guidelines and offer more practice.

NOTE: I'm very sorry to announce as of January 2012 links to EnglishCafe will no longer be active due to the site closing. I was very lucky to be a part of that online community while it lasted. I'm also sorry for the loss of additional materials for learners.

TEACHERS: Related ideas and activities are available on my WordPress blog.
