| But all of the people in America don't think so. For example: They say : That man is the greatest inventor "in history" _ not "In the history" Can you explain this problem to me ? Thanks a lot |

| Use specific "the" or non-specific "a" to define the word history, like this, What kind of history? EX: The history of ancient times. EX: She and I have a (kind of) history together. EX: What's the history on that? EX: The biggest find in the history of humankind. Hope that helps. |
