The indefinite article in Afrikaans grammar is equivalent to the English ‘a’ or ‘an.’ It is used to define a non-specific countable noun. Afrikaans, unlike English, does not have a separate indefinite article. Instead, it uses the word for ‘one’ (‘een’) or doesn’t use an article at all. The Afrikaans language is quite simple in this regard, as it doesn’t change the form depending on the gender or case of the noun.
