Q41. _______ gift she gave him was very expensive.
👁 0 viewsThe
The is used before a noun that is specific or already known to both speaker and listener. In this sentence, the gift is a particular gift that has been identified or referred to in context, so we use the definite article "the". A or An would introduce a non-specific gift, and No article would be incorrect for a singular countable noun here.
Use the definite article "the" for specific nouns already known or uniquely identifiable in context; use "a"/"an" for non-specific singular nouns; omit articles with plural or uncountable nouns where appropriate.
