1. Capitalizing Nouns:
In German all nouns are capitalized
Example: 'my name" -> "mein Name"
This helps you identify which are the nouns in a sentence
2. Three Grammatical Genders, Three Types of Nouns:
Nouns in German are either feminine, masculine or neuter
{b]Example:[/b]
"Frau" (woman) is feminine
"Mann"(man) is masculine
"Kind"(child) is neuter
The grammatical gender may not match the biological gender
Example: "Mädchen"(girl) is neuter
Is it important to learn each noun along with its gender because parts of German sentences change depending on the gender of their nouns. In case you need to guess, the most common gender is masculine.
Generally speaking, the definite article "die"(the) ad the indefinite article "eine"(a/an) are used for feminine nouns, "der" and "ein" for masculine nouns and "das" and "ein" for neuter nouns.
Example:
"der Mann"
"die Frau"
"das Kind"
However, later you will see that this changes depending on something called the "case of the noun"
3. Umlauts:
Umlauts are the 2 dots you see above some vowels in German words such as in "Mädchen". Literally, "Umlaut" means "around the sound" because its function is to change how the vowel sounds.
An Umlaut can sometimes indicate the plural of a word. For example, the plural of "Mutter"(mother) is "Mütter".
4. Verb Conjugation:
Verb conjugation in German is more challenging than in English. To conjugate a regular verb in the present tense, identify the invariant stem of the verm and add the ending corresponding to any of the grammatical presons, which you can simply memorize:
English person:
1. I
2. You (singular)
3. He/She/it
4.We
5.You(plural)
6.You(formal)
7.They
Ending:
1. -e
2. -st
3. -t
4. -en
5. -t
6. -en
7. -en
German example:
1. Ich spiele
2. Du spielst
3. Er/sie/es spielt
4. Wir spielen
5. Ihr spielt
6. Sie spielen
7. Sie spelen

Well they encourage your complete cooperation,
Send you roses when they think you need to smile.
I can't control myself because I don't know how,
And they love me for it honestly, I'll be here for a while.
