Dakie, quick question -- why do we use the article here? I thought when stating an occupation, we omit the article. Or is that just definite articles? - SonrisaDelSol, Nov 8, 2011
Same question. I see 'es un hombre de negocios' but simply 'es enfermera', any reasons for this difference? - mathslover, Nov 8, 2011
I'm also interested :) - patch, Nov 9, 2011
OK, for the simple sentence here I wrote the article but you're all right, in common speaking we don't use it. ;) - Dakie, Nov 9, 2011
sorry for confusing you . :S - Dakie, Nov 9, 2011

Usually in Spanish you do not identify the person as "una actriz". You simply say "Ella es actriz."
