Note:- indefinite article( A, An) is not used before uncountable noun. 

2) DEFINITE ARTICLE (THE) 

Article the is used to show uniqueness, or to specify noun. 

There are many rules to specify noun but  i am going to talk only ten rules which you should know them. 

संज्ञा को निर्दिष्ट करने के लिए कई नियम हैं लेकिन मैं केवल दस नियमों पर बात करने जा रहा हूं जो आपको उन्हें जानना चाहिए. 

1) N - P - N  means Noun - Preposition - Noun

Article The is placed before the first noun. 

Ex:- Kalidas is the Shakespeare of india. 

                          ⬇️           ⬇️        ⬇️      ⬇️

                          Article     Noun    pre      Noun

                                                    position

Look at the example, 

Ex:- All the candidates must answer atleast five out of the ten questions. 

Ex:- The whole nation is addressed by the prime minister. 

3)" The" is used before ORDINAL NUMBERS (first , second , third ,etc. .)

4) The is placed before Relative pronoun.

7) if this format is used, 

Either of   + The (but noun is compulsory) 

Neither of +The ( but noun is compulsory) 

None of     +The (but noun is compulsory) 

Each of +   The (but noun is compulsory) 

Ex:- eithe of the roads, goes to railway station. 

Ex:-:None of the principals has been looking after is college well. 

8)  The is used before these buildings if these buildings are not conveyed the purpose of build of buildings. 

इन इमारतों के पहले उपयोग किया जाता है यदि इन  इमारतों के निर्माण के उद्देश्य से अवगत नहीं कराया जाता है

Ex:- Ram goes to the school for study. 

In this sentence use of (The) is wrong, because here is the clearly shows the purpose of the school. 

Lets look at other example, 

Ex:- Ram's father goes to school to meet the principal. This sentence is right, because here doesn't show the purpose of the school.

9) "The" is placed before well known families name.
