An extension and a sentence

Non-finite verbs are an extension of a sentence and sometimes can be left out.
I saw the definition on a YouTube video about non-finite verbs.

Please explain to me the uses of articles - "an" extension ( countable or uncountable rule?) and "a" sentence. I really appreciate if you could explain them in detail.i could see that zero article before "non-fibre verbs" because it's a plural countable noun.
Thanks
Jignesh.

"extension" and "sentence" are singular countable nouns, so they need an article or other determiner. In this case it is the first mention of non-specific instances of these, and there is no cause to use anything other than the indefinite article.
