Definite article before scientific terms Unfortunately, the requirement in our department is to use impersonal style, otherwise it is considered unprofessional. |

Definite article before scientific terms appreciate all the comments regarding the issues with the sentences but coming back to the original question, what you're saying is that 'the' should generally be used before scientific terms. Any situations where no article is required before a scientific term? I don't really want to overly rely on 'the' or use it when it's not necessary. Example: "... to investigate how factors such as atmospheric conditions and evaporator coil geometry affect the ice build up." I reckon using 'the' before atmospheric and evaporator would just be daft, is it? any reason why? |
