Masculine Noun
Since 'resumen' is a masculine noun, always use 'el' (the) or 'un' (a/an) before it: 'el resumen', 'un resumen excelente'.
The Plural Form
Mistake: “Using 'resumens' instead of the correct plural form.”
Correction: The correct plural is 'resúmenes'. When adding '-es' to a word that ends in '-n' and has the stress on the last syllable, the written accent mark must be added to the syllable before the last one.
