Articles in Spanish DEFINITE ARTICLES To talk about specific things: Me gusta el libro de español. INDEFINITE ARTICLES To talk about non-specific things: En mi apartamento hay una cama

Differences between English & Spanish The use of definite & indefinite articles is very similar in English & Spanish. A few differences are: 1)Nationality/ profession/ occupation: NO ARTICLE Soy estudiante UNLESS AN ADJECTIVE IS ADDED Soy un estudiante inteligente. Pete Sampras es un tenista magnífico.

Differences between English & Spanish 2) Talking ABOUT people with titles: Definite ARTICLE El profesor Gómez-Canseco es español. Me gusta la doctora González. When talking directly to a person with a title, just like in English, no article at all: Buenas tardes, profesor Gómez-Canseco ¿Cómo está, doctora González?
