Артикль. Упражнения на отработку.

АРТИКЛЬ

• Перед каждым нарицательным существительным должен стоять артикль.
• Если вы не употребляете перед существительным артикль, вы должны уметь объяснить, почему.
• Артикль не употребляется, если перед существительным стоит притяжательное или указательное местоимение, другое существительное в притяжательном падеже, количественное числительное или отрицание "по" (не "not"!).
