Secara teknis, artikel adalah kata sifat (adjective), yang dapat  memodifikasi kata benda. Biasanya kata sifat mengubah kata melalui deskripsinya, Ada beberapa jenis artikel yang dapat kita gunakan dalam penulisan dan percakapan untuk menunjukkan atau merujuk kepadakata atau kelompok kata. artcle itu antara lain: Definite articles. indefinite articles, dan Unnecessary Definite Article.

The Use of Articles (Penggunaan Artikel)

1. Definite Article: The 
Definite article digunakan untuk menunjukkan kata benda (noun), baik dalam bentuk tunggal atau jamak. Definite article ini menunjukkan benda, orang, tempat atau ide atau gagsan yang sudah jelas benda atua orangnya yang dimaksud. Artikel ini  diletakkan sebelum kata benda, atau sebelum kata sifat yang langsung memodifikasi kata benda.

  • Please give me the hammer and the nail. 
 2. Indefinite Articles: and An
Indifinite Articles digunakan ketika kita ingin menunjukkan sesuatu yang belum jelas atau belum ditentukan. Kita menggunakannya ketika kita tidak tahu (tidak peduli) yang sedang kita berbicara.
Kita menggunakan articles ” A” sebelum kata benda (noun) atau kata sifat (adjectives) yang kata itu diawali oleh huruf mati (konsonan) baik secara bentuk wujud huruf maupun secara pengucapan seperti ”U” dibaca “YU” dll.

Contoh : A child is riding a bicycle along a sidewalk; the child is wearing the helmet


Personal Description



NAMA   : I PUTRA ASDA SHAFARI
NPM      : 13216339
KELAS  : 1EA07



           Haii… my name is I Putra Asda Shafari. But people call me Putra. I was born in Jakarta, June 28th 1997, and now I live in Bekasi. I am a middle child, i have one older sister and one little brother. Many people think that my family came from Bali when they hear my name. Maybe because some of Balinese people also have the letter 'I' in front of their names like i do, but my parents actually came from West Sumatera. My mother, she is a housewife and my father is an entrepreneur. My hobbies are playing football, playing playstation, and many more.

I went to one of an elementary school in Jakarta on 2009, then i graduated and went to 74 junior high school also in Jakarta. There was a lot of memory that i can’t forget when i studied there. I graduated on 2012 and continued to 36 senior high school and graduated on 2015.

When it comes to college, i tried to enter some of the state universities, but sadly i couldn’t make it. Then i decided to give it another shot the next year.  I spent the whole year taking a  course to prepare myself before i took the second entrance examination. I did some try outs, and the result was actually not disapointed for me. A year had past, i took the entrance examination for the second time, and it turned out i still couldn’t make it. I tried another way. I took the independent test that was held by the universities itself, but still i couldn’t make it as well. Why did I wanted to go to state universities so much?? Well, the main reason is because the cost is mostly afordable  and i heard they also provided the student with a high quality teachers and good facilities. 

Finally, I decied to enroll to Gunadarma University because from what i know, it is considered one of the best private university in Indonesia. And also because its not very far from my house. I chose to major in Management. I've always wanted to be a Manager thats why. When the division of classes, my name was in 1EA07. Until one day, when i was informed that i might be able to get a scholarahip from Gunadarma University. I was very happy! with this scholarship, i can still study here when my parents really don’t need to pay anything to the university and we really thankful for that. Thanks to Gunadarma University for the scholarships that have been given to me.
