what type of word is the
The word the is very important to native speakers of English because it is used to divide the world we process through language into two categories: old information and new information. It helps us to divide the world into things which we agree are known, or important, and things which we feel aren't.I have my that book. Some of the words which modify nouns are not as clearly adjectives as those in the sentences above, but rather they appear as phrases like: kind of, type of, sort of, variety of, style of... But these words also must be preceded by a determiner when they modify a noun.
