the or a In Japanese school they teach that play a piano is wrong, that it should be played the piano. However, I have an impression that as an answer to a question "What did he play at the concert?", "He played a piano" is possible and even more natural than "He played the piano". Am I wrong?

article "the" with a proper nown Usually article "the" does not go with a proper noun. I wonder if it is possible e.g. in the following situation. Someone asks a group of people. Who is George Washington? I am the George Washington.

the usage of the word 'could' I learned on this site that the word 'could' cannot be used in a sentence like the below: I could buy a ticket yesteday. (I was able to buy a ticket yesterday) However I found the following sentence by a respectable author: I could buy a cup of coffee for a dollar this morning, since I got a coupon in the mail. Is this sentence correct? If so, then why?

"good luck" or "a good luck" An author who is native English(American) writes in a book on English grammar: Yebisu(brandname of beer), the legendary character, brings you a good luck. I(the author) am always disappointed at this catchphrase..... "a good luck" sounds very weird since "good luck" is not a thing but an abstract idea.... (sorry for my poor translation) Is this catchphrase that weird? I read so often the expression "I wish you a good luck" If this is okay, why the other isn't?
