The definite article in the Accusative Case for a masculine noun
For example, the sentence "Sie trinkt den Tee."
In the given sentence, "Sie trinkt den Tee," the word "Tee" is a masculine noun. In German, "Tee" is "der Tee" in the nominative case. In the accusative case, for masculine nouns, the definite article changes from "der" to "den." Therefore, the correct sentence is "Sie trinkt den Tee," which translates to "She drinks the tea" in English. Remembering these definite article changes in the accusative case is crucial for accurate sentence construction. Practice using the correct article forms for masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns to improve your German language skills.
