The indefinite article is what we call the word a in English. The indefinite article is used with nouns in English (a book, a chair, a door etc.). To get started in Irish, pick just 3 important nouns. We suggest you learn the nouns leabhar, cathaoir and doras (book, chair, door). Once you have learned these nouns, you can then learn how to use each noun with the indefinite article. This is easy in Irish, because in Irish, there is no indefinite article. So the word leabhar can mean book or a book, the word cathaoir can mean chair or a chair and the word doras can mean door or a door. You can scroll to the top of this page to see a short lesson about the indefinite article in Irish including useful examples.
