Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Is there ___________ apple in the bag?

• A. A
• B. An
• C. The
• D. No article

Answer 1

The correct option is B An

An indefinite article is used when we are talking generally about something whereas a definite article is used when we are talking about something specific.

The indefinite articles are 'a' and 'an'. An is used before a word starting with a vowel or vowel sound. A is used before a word starting with a consonant or consonant sound.

A definite article is an article that tells the uniqueness of something.

'The' is the only definite article .

The blank shall take 'an' because the following word 'apple' is a singular countable noun.

Is there an apple in the bag?

The correct answer is option B) AN.
