articles, demonstratives, possessives, quantifiers, and numbers. Each type of
determiner is explained with examples, demonstrating how they contribute to
marking definiteness, indicating quantity, showing possession, and establishing
proximity. The article also outlines the typical syntactic structure of noun
phrases, where determiners play a crucial role in establishing clarity and
precision. Overall, the article emphasizes the importance of determiners in
English grammar for effective communication and highlights their essential role
in shaping the meaning of sentences
