Hi & welcome, Mike!  Recently you wrote in a message to ALEXANDER KORYAGIN:

 ak>  Trump's 2019 budget book is called "An American budget".

 ak>  Why "an" -- not "the"? After all, we know it
is about the
 ak>  US budget for 2019. I'd say "The American 2019 budget" or
 ak>  "The US' 2019 budget".

 MP>  It isn't "The" budget until it is approved, right?  My
 MP>  guess is that there will be more than one edition before
 MP>  that happens.


           Thankyou... I was hoping we'd get some input from the States.  As a
Canadian I would call this document a draft or preliminary version of the 2019
budget, and a news reporter might call it Trump's proposed budget.  But I have
no idea whether its official title departs from established US custom....  :-)
