Wanted to ask for some tips since I’m really struggling with this trying to learn German.
I know there are certain ways to guess the gender (e.g. -er endings are usually masculine, -ung feminine and loan words neutral) but often times I’m just butchering the whole sentence by not knowing the correct articles.
Let me demonstrate my frustration: in many cultures the moon is considered “feminine”, but in German it has masculine article!
Bitte, hüfe!
This is what I would prefer! A clear rule. But I’ve bumped into so many exceptions that have made me really insecure when I try to use the language in my day-to-day life.
