Hint

Sometimes we replace an article with it’s corresponding pronoun:

Der Computer?
Er ist hier. (der → er)
The computer?
„He“ 
(it) is here.

Die Fahrkarte?
Sie kostet viel. (die → sie)
The ticket?
„She“
 (it) costs a lot.

Hier ist das Foto.
Tim braucht es. (das → es)
Here is the photo.
Tim needs it.

Observe how the last letters of the substitute pronouns are the same as in the articles. Also their genders (masculine, feminime, neuter) match.

learn to ride with training wheels

This is the last time you’re riding with training wheels. In the next writing exercise (in lesson 10), they will be taken off!

Forgetting punctuation marks (,.!?) and confusing upper and lower case will then result in points being deducted!

  3   Replace the article with its corresponding pronoun

Use er, sie, or es according to the hint above.

Wo ist das Büro? Hier, es ist Nummer zwölf!

 

Wie viel kostet die Monatskarte? kostet viel.

Wie ist das Geschäft? ist sehr gut.

Ist der Kaffee gut? Ja, ist sehr gut.

Hier ist das Café. ist schön.

Wo ist der Bruder? ist hier.

Wann ist die Hochzeit? ist morgen.

Warum hast du das Foto? Tim braucht für die Hochzeit.

Wo ist die Mutter? ist nicht hier.

Wann kommt die Schwester von Tim? kommt morgen.
