The - definite article

'The' is used with specific nouns, required when the noun it refers to represents something that is one of a kind, something in the abstract, something named earlier in the text. We also use ‘the’ with certain kinds of proper nouns: geographical places, pluralized names (geographic, family, teams), newspapers, nouns followed by a prepositional phrase beginning with "of".
