Couple of Questions about Articles
Hi,
In each of the following sentences there is a mistake of Articles. What are they? I've got the answers which have been provided by the book key, but I think there are some other mistakes.
a) A next bus to a country doesn't leave for six more hours. ("A" must be omitted but I think the "a" before country is extra and must be omitted as well or change to "the")
b) I'm planning to visit the Nepal in a June. ( "the" before Nepal must be omitted since Nepal is the name of a country, but in addition to that I think "a" before June is extra as well.)
I'd appreciate any help in advance,
Iman
