I do. The is “el/la” and a is “un/una”.

In my dad’s language and my second language, it’s “the” and “a”

    Yes, we do.

    “Il/lo/la/i/gli/le” instead of “the”, the precise article is chosen taking in consideration gender and plurality. We even have elliptic forms with " l’ ," for words starting with a vowel.

    Then we have “un/uno/una” instead of “a”. Again elliptic form "un’ " for feminine words starting with a vowel.
