Ich lerne Deutsch!

OK, so I’ll only cover the 3 basic definite articles that I have learned so far because apparently, there are lots of different ones… but for now:

DER, DIE, DAS.

So, the general rule:
Die goes for ALL things plural & ALL things feminine.

which leaves
Der for all things masculine singular.

and
Das for all things neutral singular.

There you have it. The 3 main articles with the 3 German genders.

Now let’s hear it for some examples!

Der Mann ist klein.
The man is short.

Das Baby weint.
The baby is crying.

Die Frau lacht.
The woman is laughing.

Die Männer warten.
The men are waiting.
