Focusing on the classification and functions of articles in 104 languages, the study categorizes them into ten distinct types, including definite, indefinite, and exclusive-specific. Each type is thoroughly described with examples, highlighting crosslinguistic trends in article distribution and development. Additionally, it proposes a typology of article systems, aiming to offer a comprehensive overview of their properties. This resource is ideal for those interested in language typology and serves as a reference for specific studies on articles and determiners.
