In the Latvian language, there are no grammatical devices such as โtheโ or โaโ to distinguish between definite and indefinite nouns. However, there are endings (-ais, -ฤ, -ais, -ฤs for masculine singular, feminine singular, masculine plural, feminine plural respectively), known as definite forms, added to adjectives to express definiteness. Incorporating these definite forms accurately and consistently in your sentences is fundamental to mastering Latvian grammar.
