Hi, Sofiane!I also learn English. We can say the 1st sentence: That is a beautiful country. The 2nd sentence: I use a plier to fix things. I use the English dictionary to help with my learning. Helpful.

Hello, Sofiane!

I think you will find the following section useful: http://www.polseguera.org/basic_english_grammar/definite_and_indefinite_article.php

The correct answers are That country is beautiful and I use some pliers to fix things (or I use a pair of pliers to fix things). Note that "beautiful" is an adjective, so it does not take "a". Pliers is a plural noun, so "some" is used. More information at http://www.polseguera.org/advanced_english_grammar/singular_plural_nouns1.php#return17

Best regards,
