Default Re: Omission of articles

I would say it is a bad translation. The rule is fairly strict, that is as strict as any rule in English can be. Remember, there are always exceptions to rules in English. Here are some links that may help.

OWL at Purdue University: Count and NonCount Nouns (with Articles and Adjectives)

articles and countable nouns exceptions - Google Search

I hope these help.
