when do we use the article"the"?
i'm finding it hard to understand it.
i know it's used when someone is talking about something to someone and the both (or both) know about that something.
but there are sometimes when i get confused whether to use the article or not. examples
1. i am in happy mood or in the happy mood .
2. the statement is in future tense or in the future tense.
3. i'm in vain or in a vain or the vain
4. i'm in the taxi or in a taxi or in taxi

1. I am in a happy mood.
2. The statement is in future tense or in the future tense. (We so frequently drop 'the' in talking about tenses that you can think of 'the' as optional.)
3. i'm in vain or in a vain or the vain (This doesn't make sense. I don't know what you mean.)
4. I'm in the taxi or in a taxior in taxi
