Indefinite Articles
The indefinite articles in Spanish are un and una. With masculine nouns un is used; with feminine nouns, una is used.
un libro | a book | una pluma | a pen |
un cuchillo | knife | una mesa | a table |
The indefinite article is used in Spanish exactly as in English, with this minor difference: the indefinite article is not used before a predicate noun in Spanish, especially when the predicate noun indicates nationality or profession.
Ricardo es maestro.
Richard is a teacher.
Soy americano.
I am an American.
