Workshop "Articles in articles"

Articles are one of the most challenging aspects of English grammar.  How can articles impact text understanding? How can we use them in academic writing effectively?  At the workshop, we will review major functions of articles and their use depending on the context. It will allow us to categorize their usage and to come up with some simple strategies to sound natural and explicit. Besides, potential error patterns will be considered in order to reduce the recurrence of typical  errors. We will practice a lot and, by the end of the workshop, you will be on friendly terms with English articles.
