Default Re: Usage of "The"

Question:
When should we use "the" in a sentence?
That is an example of when we should not use "the" (before "sentence"). (You could perhaps say: "Should I have used "the" in the sentence I just described?")

Here is a good resource:

Well, there are others, but I don't think they offer anything additional. I would first study what they have there, and if you need more help come back to UE.
