The Closing Net--cover
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English.

The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter.
