Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can recognise and use German plural rule 3 - add -(e)n to feminine nouns - and say what things are like using ‘ist’ and ‘sind’.

Show transcript
'Sein' means 'to be, being', 'ist' (is) is the 3rd person singular and 'sind' is the 3rd person plural. For all plural nouns, the German word for 'the' is 'die'. For noun plural rule 3, most feminine nouns add '-n' or '-en'. Feminine nouns ending in -el, -en or -er almost always add -n or -en in the plural form too.
