German Language - Vocabulary (A1)

Clarification: The correct definite article for 'Minute' in German is 'die'. 'Der' and 'das' are definite articles for masculine and neuter nouns respectively, while 'den' is the accusative form of 'der'. 'Minute' is a feminine noun.

Clarification: 'Stadt' means 'city', which is a type of place and matches the concept of 'Ort'. 'Apfel' is 'apple', 'Hund' is 'dog', and 'Blau' is 'blue', none of which are types of places.

Clarification: A 'Pfad' is a path or trail, so a walking trail in the park fits this description. It cannot be an appliance, instrument, or currency, hence options b, c, and d are incorrect.

Clarification: In the sentence 'Sie ist meine Lehrerin', 'sie' refers to a singular female person, meaning 'she'. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the context of referring to a female person.

Clarification: Both 'Bohne' (bean) and 'Pea' are legumes, which makes them related. 'Apple' is a fruit, 'Carrot' is a root vegetable, and 'Rice' is a grain.
