Number, Gender, and Case

When we use a noun, we have to take into consideration three things:

• Its number -- singular or plural
• Its gender -- masculine, feminine or neuter
• Its case -- how it's used in the sentence

Here's the definite article “the” in all its numbers, cases, and genders.

the
	Singular			Plural
	Masc.	Fem.	Neuter	Masc.	Fem.	Neuter
Nominative Case
Genitive Case
Accusative Case

But wait -- there's more! Not only does the article change with case, so does the noun that goes with it. Here's an example on the next page:
