Fill in the blanks with the correct article- The teacher has been teaching for _________ hour.

The words known as articles indicate whether a noun is singular or plural. A and an are definite articles. The definite article is 'the'. When referring to something that is singular or has already been mentioned, the definite article "the" is used. In contrast, the article "a" is used with names of nonspecific objects. When a word's first letter is a vowel or has the sound of a vowel, the article "an" is used. Since the given noun "hour" sounds like a vowel, "an" will be used in this sentence.
