Indef inite Ar ticle:

ein, eine, ein,...

The indefinite article emphasizes the type of thing or person being referred to, rather than
the specific individual. In our example, the speaker doesn’t care which apple or which
potato you use:
Sie brauchen: einen Apfel, eine Kartoffel . . . You need: an apple, a potato. . .
The indefinite article in English is “a/an.” In German the form of the indefinite
article changes to show the gender and case of the noun:
Nominative Accusative Genitive Dative
Masculine ein einen eines einem
Feminine eine eine einer einer
Neuter ein ein eines einem
There is no plural form of the indefinite article in English or in German.
Demonstrative Determiners :
dieser, der. . . (hier/da)
Demonstratives are like a strong definite article. They point to something near to or far
from the speaker:
The forms of der ... (hier/da) are shown above, under “Definite article.” Here are the forms
of dieser “this”:
Singular Plural
Nominative Accusative Genitive Dative Nominative Accusative Genitive Dative
Masculine dieser diesen dieses diesem }
Feminine diese diese dieser dieser } diese diese dieser diesen
Neuter dieses dieses dieses diesem }
Interrogative Determiners:
Welche/s/r/n/m ...?
You use welcher/welche/welches/welchen/welchem “which” to ask someone to choose from a
known collection:
WelchenWein möchten Sie trinken? Which wine would you like to drink?
The endings are exactly the same as those for dieser.
