How do I use 'a' in Dovahzul to refer to something?

I am currently underway of writing a story on Wattpad, and I decided to make it more interesting by using Dovahzul for some parts of it. I would like to get my dragon tongue correct when writing the story so I won't mislead my readers who are interested in the language. However, as a newbie myself, I have read little about how to use Dovahzul, but since I don't have a lot of free time to myself, I can't tackle pages on how to use Dovahzul like I want. Right now my main concern is how to use 'a' in order to refer to something.

I have used the translater in order to help me, but when I use 'a' to refer to something in English, I would get only the word I am refering to when I translated it back from Dovahzul. For example, if I were to type "I saw a ball in the middle of the road" in the English section, after translating it Dovahzul and back, I would get "I saw ball in the middle of the road."

How do I use 'a' in Dovahzul to refer to something in order for it to make sence in English? Is there a way for me use it like if I used 'L' at the end of a Dovahzul word? Or is a way like that doesn't exist? Please help!

"Aan" is the Dovahzul word for a(n). However, it is only used when you refer to something that is explicitly á thing. In your case, and pretty much all other cases, you should simply leave it out.

Look at the dictionary or use gein (one). So it would be one ball. If you still want "a" refering to the ball consult a translator.
