Default Re: THE before an adjective
mmm...it gives food for thought.

in wiki, I've found a sentence:

A similar situation is "ink pen" instead of just "pen" the southern United States, where "pen" and"pin" are pronounced similarly.

s in southern is a lower case letter, why has THE been used? Or should it be deleted?
