Hola Martin
The use of articles in Spanish can be influenced by various factors, and there isn't a strict rule that covers all situations. However, I can provide a general guideline:
Using articles ("el," "la," "los," "las")
Nouns with specificity: When referring to specific activities or challenges, especially if they are well-defined, articles are used.
Un saludo
Silvia
