, p. Pleashe HELP!AI have a question for native speakers, pof the English language. Pleashe HELP!AI have a question for the English native speakers,; pleashe HELPAs a title, it was fine. Apart from the spelling of punctuation and the spelling of ”please”, all is correct. You don’t even have to mention ”English”. It’s implicit that ”native speakers” refers to those who speak English - the title is written in English!
”for the English native speakers” is used in some colloquial spoken dialects of American. ”the” does not get used in this context when introducing the idea of ”for English native speakers” - we don’t know which specific English native speaker you are referring to. Try using ”the” here when writing a SAT or GRE essay...

What would you say?
It’s still clear that you don’t understand the difference between a definite article such as ”the” and a referral like ”these”. As I had said before, both ”the” and ”these” are correct in the context given by the author - but with a change of meaning.
So, you have edited something which is correct to something else with a different meaning. You could have made the case that ”these” is more commonly used in this instance than ”the” - but you obviously didn’t.
Here’s your comment as it presently exists just in case it ”changes”:
”you provide the phrases, so use these, not the.”
