Learn about the different types of Spanish articles with these lessons.

  
Definite Article (el, la, los, las)
The definite article is sometimes confusing for beginning students, because it has to agree in gender and number with the noun it modifies, and it doesn't always correspond to articles in other languages.

Indefinite article (un, una, unos, unas)
Learn the Spanish equivalents for a, an, and some.

Neuter article (lo)
Spanish has a neuter article, lo, which is invariable and is used in front of just about any adjective in order to express something abstract or a quality.

Stressed A
When a feminine Spanish noun begins with a stressed A sound, it may require a masculine article.
