El artículo en español para hablantes rusos: usos y valores

Abstract

The correct use of definite and indefinite articles in Spanish is a particular difficulty for those learning this language as a foreign one and, mainly, for students whose native languages lack for this grammatical and functional semantic category since in this case we have to do with varied and often almost imperceptible semantic and stylistic differences. The comparison of the translation with its equivalent in the original language and a comparative analysis of the similarities and differences of the languages in question could help us to find and systematize the ways the languages have to convey the meaning of the same categories.
