What is the difference between זה, זו, זאת? Are they entirely synonymous and interchangeable? Also, is there no way of distinguishing between "it," "this," and "that"?
The from זו is a bit more formal than זאת, otherwise they're synonymous. They are feminine, זה is masculine. In many context where English has different meanings for "it", "this" and "that", Hebrew doesn't, but you'll see the nuances as you proceed in this course.
On my computer, I click on the keyboard at the bottom of the screen on the taskbar, then click language preference, then click add a language, choose Hebrew or whatever language you want to add to your keyboard, then ok or apply. you just have to remember to click on the keyboard to change back to another language when you need to. Hope that Helps !
Also, assuming this is Windows 10, once your keyboards are set up, Start + Space will quickly cycle through languages.

Although what you wrote is correct, suffixes are rarely used nowadays, and not really used in this course, either, apart from the possessives skill. So, that is the problem with your answer.

ah--thanks for the comment--I thought that might be the case, but wondered if I had misconstructed it somehow
