Please refer omissionto the 'omission of articles.' I am going to my friend's house for a dinner party tonight. The dinner party which was organized in my friend's house was fabulous. We had a lavish dinner in a hotel. The lavish dinner was expensive.
A dinner party refers to an event more than THE dinner itself. Again THE dinner does not refer to the actual dinner as such therefore The dinner is used.
THE dinner party which was..... Here THE has been used for two reasons. 1. Because THE is referring to the previous sentence or it is a continuation of a story. 2. Again it is an event and not an actual meal as such.
THE lavish dinner... Here lavish is an adjective so an article THe is used before an adjective and not the word dinner as such
Come on guys let's have dinner it's already 9. In this case we are not using any article because it is referring to a meal and not an event or party and so on.
We don't use articles to before any namethe names of any meals. Hope I am right and I hope more that it helpedwill help the readers.
