Lesson 2: NOUNS AND ARTICLES

The gender of nouns generally indicates the gender of the object it is representing (Der Lehrer for a male teacher; Die Lehrerin for a female teacher).  With inanimate objects, it is not necessarily true.

The endings of nouns may also indicate its gender.  Here is a list of common noun endings that reflect a certain gender!

  Singular Endings
Masculine er, en, el
Feminine e, in, ei, heit, keit, schaft, ung
Neuter er, en, el, chen
