Macedonian articles[edit]
The Macedonian language has three definite articles pertaining to position of the object: unspecified, proximate (or close), and distal (or distant). All three have different gender forms, for masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns and adjectives. The articles takes the form of a suffix (i.e., a postfix) at the end of the word it modifies. The definite article is the only type of article present in the Macedonian language, corresponding to the English definite article "the".
