Articles are words used to distinguish known entities from new entities in discourse. Cyranese works similarly to English: there is a definite article, like English "the", which is applied to know entities, and an indefinite article, which is used to introduce new entities to conversation or refer to any entity, like english "a/an". Articles are also inflected for case and number.
