7 -the life o life?-
Nota d'usoLe regole grammaticali sull'uso dell'articolo determinativo the in inglese sono complesse e non prive di eccezioni. In linea di massima, quando si parla di sostantivi non numerabili o al plurale in senso generale, non si usa l'articolo: Life is difficult, la vita è difficile; I like cats, mi piacciono i gatti. L'articolo viene invece utilizzato quando si tratta di un particolare esempio di questi sostantivi: The life of a sailor, la vita di un marinaio; The boys in my class, i ragazzi della mia classe. Possibili eccezioni sono alcune parole che fanno parte della vita di tutti i giorni, della natura, e gruppi di persone noti a tutti: The buses are always crowded in the rush hour, gli autobus sono sempre affollati all'ora di punta; We always go to the mountains in August, andiamo sempre in montagna in agosto; The police have arrived, la polizia è arrivata. -

Cronin, ‘Hatter's Castle’, book I, ch. 2) — Умение Дениса вести легкий, пустой разговор, делавшее его душой всякого общества, куда-то исчезло, источник комплиментов, которые так естественно текли из его уст, казалось, иссяк.
