E2
About this episode

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Everyday English with E2. Each week, we focus on English grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation or spelling, and this week it’s all about grammar and the indefinite article, which you all know as ‘a’ or ‘an’.

What article do I use, and when and why? We get these questions from everyone! Beginners, intermediates, OET and IELTS students, and even students doing a masters degree! 

And if you ever want a bit more practice before your English test, make sure you head to www.e2testprep.com and sign up for our free online English test prep courses for IELTS, PTE, OET, TOEFL, TOEIC and CELPIP.
