The A/An & Zero Article

If you translate into Spanish, do we use articles to say these?



When do we use THE and when do we omit it ?

Once upon a time a boy met a girl in the centre of the city.
They had an ice cream together, and then they went to the cinema to see a film. The film was called Eleven Years.

    Good morning to everybody! This is my point of view about “Wonderful”:

    "Wonderwall” was written by Noel Gallagher, and is probably his best known song. The original title of 'Wonderwall' was 'Wishing Stone', and "Wonderwall" is one of the most versioned songs by other bands

    There are some theories about the meaning of "wonderwall".

    First, originally "Wonderwall" was the title of George Harrison's first album, one of the Beatles. In addition, during an interview, John Lennon used the word "wonderwall" instead of "wonderful". This is just wrong when he may call to Yoko Ono as Wonderful. The Beatles were a big influence on Oasis, may have arisen here song.

    And on the other hand, the song "Wonderwall" is dedicated to Noel Gallagher's girlfriend Meg Mathews. Noel married Mathews, but they divorced in 2001. But Gallagher says it's a song dedicated to an imaginary friend that one day will come and save him from himself.

    In conclusion, it is a person of which you have a total infatuation with; a person with an indescribable aura, making them seem so perfect; the person that you feel could be the one to "save you" from whatever unhappiness or emptiness you feel; the person you feel could complete you; your soulmate. The one you want to spend the rest of your life with, your only reason for life.

    It is basically someone you can lean on no matter what happens and they will always be there for you. It could be a friend, family, or a lover. It is someone who cares about you so much and thinks about you all the time.

    It’s a marvellous song.

    Bye!

    I am sorry, I forget

    In many psychiatric clinics there is also a wall (called a wonderful wall / wonderwall) where patients put pictures of things that life is worth living.

    Thanks

    I think that wonderwall means wonderful support, it's like the better half we all need or have. The song says that even now she's gone always be his wonderwall.

    "Wonderwall" means that you fall in love with someone and you think that this person is perfect for you. However, it is not true because you are really infatuated with.

    Hi partner. In my opinion in this song, when you fall in love, you will have many questions and would like to say what your heart is feeling, but do not know how to say it. The person fall in love would do and say things that usually do not and this reference is the person you're in love (he called wonder wall.
    That's all.

    I think wonderwall means in this song the person who is beside you all time and come from the word wonderful.
    This “change” was from one of the member of the Oasis group, Gallagher. He wrote this song for his girlfriend. He meant that she is wonderful.

    Hello everybody.
    Wonderwall is probably the best known song wrote by Gallagher. It was dedicate to Gallagher’s girlfriend. Wonderwall means that you fall in love with someone, it’s dedicate to the person who is beside you all time.
    In my opinion, it is kind of song when you will have many question and you would like to say what your heart is felling, and you want to spend the rest of your life with that person, and this is the first reason of your life.
    Bye

    Hi!I´ve found this...

    The song was published in 30th October in 1995.
    The songo was used in the Lost season, in the chapter 3x08 and in 4x30 of the Nip/Tuch season.
    It was considered by the XFM magazine like one of the best British songs in the story.
    Ryan Adams made a version about "Wonderwall" and this appeared in the sexth chapter of the first season of Lie to Me´series.

    Hi partners,

    I would like just to say good exercises and an amazing final song!

    ...always love, how many people will have been inspired by love while writting, listening and striking?! and how many people would have sacrified themselves just for love?! LOVE, TOO DANGEROUS (it should be taken under prescription, any doubt? consult an especialist)

    Happy New Year!
