Articles an and a
In English, unlike many other languages, we use the indefinite article beforeocupations. When the occupation is in singular form.
The article a/an means exactly the same in both ways.
We use a when the noun begins with consonant sound. -I’m a teacher. -You are a university student. -My mom isn’t a doctor. She’s a homemaker.
We use an when the noun begins with vowel sound. -My frien is an engineer. -Brad Pitt is an actor.
In plural form, we don’t use the article a/an,
We are a teachers.
We are teachers.

Possessive nouns ‘s and s’When we want to show that something belongs to
somebody or something, we usually add 's to a singular noun and an apostrophe ' to a plural noun, for example:
the boy's ball (one boy)the boys' ball (two or more boys)
Ana’s car. Jorge’s mom.CELLAP’s teachers.
Carlos’s dad. Max’s mom. Doris’s boyfriend.

Possessive nouns ‘s and s’
Some nouns have irregular plural forms without s (man > men). To show possession, we usually add 's to
the plural form of these nouns:
Singular noun Plural noun
