Hello teacher! Could you please tell me the differences between "being a king" and "being king" and when to use these.
Thank you!
the indefinite articles are used to indicate membership in a profession, nation, or religion. Eg. He is a teacher. Likewise - Being a teacher (Gerund).
He is a king. Being a king is right.

Oh I see! It helped a lot!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome, Smelvanzq.
