標題[Ask ] Should I put the "The" or not...
時間Wed Jul 6 20:41:32 2011
I am preparing for my TOEFL now
and I ran into a grammer problem that listed below:
"The clerks and the baristas of Starbucks are..."
Is this correct?
I've read about that if one talks about the whole group of certain noun,
the definite article must be omitted.
So does it mean it's not "The clerks and the baristas" but
"Clerks and baristas of..."?
Could anyone help me, please?
