the = der, die, das, dem, den

a = ein, einer, eine, einen, einem

Welcome to the german language

The = de, het

A = een

This is Dutch. Go tell me this is more difficult than German.

No “a”, but there is “the”. Al- (ال-)

Extra: we also have a vocative case. يا (Ya) which would translate to «'O» in English. “Ya yahya” would be “'O John” for example. It is mandatory when referring to people.

Arabic.
