Show transcript
[r] needs practice to distinguish its pronunciation depending on its within-word position and surrounding letters.
Feminine words for jobs often add -in to the masculine noun, often resulting in the mid-word consonantal [r] sound.
When adjectives come before nouns, they have different endings depending on the noun gender, type of article and case.
Singular accusative adjective endings for indefinite articles are: -en (masculine), -e (feminine) and -es (neuter).
For accusative plural nouns after 'keine', the adjective ending is -en; without an article the accusative ending is -e.
