Teaching the use of the definite article to students of English as a second language is often difficult. Recent descriptions of English do not make the task any easier, for the major modern theoretical approaches to language description have not yet de- veloped a means of adequately accounting for the referential complexities involved in the use of the definite article. Ameri- can structural and, particularly, generative-transformational ap- proaches are examined and found to be inadequate. An alterna- tive, non-formal approach based upon the notion of a “conspiracy of uniqueness” is suggested.
