About cases you don't use the article "the" and "a" | Would anybody be able to tell me why there is no article in this case? [duplicate]

Is there a particular term for the abbreviated language used in headlines (the removal of at least articles and conjunctions)?


Solution 1:

Mårdh (1980) refers to this type of language as "headlinese". (Mårdh, Ingrid. 1980. Headlinese: On the grammar of English front page headlines. Malmö: CWK Gleerup.) See also this Wikipedia page.
