issue of putting articles
Hi,
Sometimes I am completely sure whether I should say "time" or "the time" when the situation, at least to me, doesn't seem to present itself to a clear distinction.
Time is up -- not the time is up??
Preparation is allowed -- OK, this seems OK.
You have ample time to answer -- I think, putting the is OK too, eventhough without it might be preferable.
