This really extends what you can say in German, but it is not easy to grasp or remember the combinations. Sounds like some more learning off by heart! Thank you. Colin

Only if you could add sample sentences in German it would be better.

Genau Colin! that is exactly right. These tips should help give you a head start but practice is what will really cement it in place. After a while of practicing you will develop a “gut feeling” for it based on how it sounds

Learning the gender of nouns to get ‘der’, ‘die’, ‘das’ right is hard work. The usual solution is just to write them out to learn by heart. The tips are useful and will cut down some of the work. The rest is using the words in practice, and also hearing the sounds of which alternative is linked with which noun. All such tips gratefully received. Colin
