Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: no article.
The sentence “I haven’t seen her in nine years” is about a specific person, so we do not need to use an article. If we were talking about a general person, we would use “a” or “an”:
- I haven’t seen a woman in nine years.
- I haven’t seen an old man in nine years.
But in this case, we are talking about a specific person, so we do not need to use an article.
