   Hi, Dallas Hinton! -> Alexander Koryagin   
   I read your message from 20.09.2023 04:26   
      
    DK> The word "the" is an article and is correctly used in your   
    DK> example. It is sometimes pronounced as "thee" when placed   
    DK> before a vowel but the spelling doesn't change.   
      
   It seems to me I heard somewhere that in the US when a person wants to   
   emphasise the statement he uses "thee" even when a Canadian does not. ;-)   
      
   Ah, here it is, thanx 2 Google:
