I am preparing for my TOEFL now and I ran into a grammer problem that listed below: "The clerks and the baristas of Starbucks are..." Is this correct? I've read about that if one talks about the whole group of certain noun, the definite article must be omitted. So does it mean it's not "The clerks and the baristas" but "Clerks and baristas of..."? Could anyone help me, please? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.168.123.181

if you state every clerks in SB, you dont need "the"

you use "the" to focus on a definite part of a group.
