Michael,

Since I'm a newcomer myself, I can't welcome you. ;-)

Articles are not necessary, and many languages don't have them. Actually, I think they
are quite rare. Your question reminds me of another I meant to ask here: are
articles an Indo-European creation?

And please, make follow-ups go both for you and the list. ;-)
