Dear teachers,
Would you please tell me why the definite is not used in the following sentence even though the noun is followed by a prepositional phrase ?
King Henry VIII declared himself Ø head of the Church.
F. Mitterand was elected Ø president of France in 1981.
Would you please tell me why there is no capital letter to "head" and "president" ?
Thank you for your help.
