Oportunidades: uses and omission of definite and indefinite articles

Spanish definite articles are 'el', 'la', 'los' and 'las'. Indefinite articles are 'un', 'una', 'unos' and 'unas'. Spanish differs from English in its use and non-use of articles in several ways. Spanish requires the definite article with: general and abstract nouns, days of the week, titles and parts of the body. Indefinite articles in Spanish can translate as 'a/an', 'one' or 'some'. Omit the indefinite article when referring to someone's profession in general, but include it when an adjective follows.
