"junge" is an adjective meaning "young" and "Junge" is a noun meaning "boy".

Der junge Junge. = The young boy.

"ist" and "bist" are never used interchangeably.

According to german grammer all nouns should be capatiled latters..... So Junge is use inbehalf of junge....

Ein is for males and children eine is for females

When "is" is used, you stay in the nominative

Einen is used for masculine nouns when they are in accusative case (ie, when they are the direct object of the sentence). In a sentence like "er ist ein Junge", both Junge and er are considered the subject (or nominative case) since they refer to the same person. It's like saying er = Junge.

One was accusative and one wasn't, changing ein to einen.

"Sie" is used when you address respectfully to someone and it can refer both to singular or plural form of "you". Wie heissen Sie ? - What is your name? (formal) - and think that this example stands both for singular and plural (addressing to a single person or many, but in a respectful way). "sie" = they. Nothing else special about it... Hope you understood something. I'm not good at explaining things. :D

er = he; sie = she; es = it;

Hi

Er mean He and Der es The, ie: Er ist ein Junge = He is a boy, meanwhile: Der Junge: The boy

Duolingo is about learning with trial and error. You're supposed to get things wrong and then learn from there. A lot of times it will give you the dictionary translation of a word if you click it though.

Indeed

Sie (written with capital letter!) doesn't mean she! Means "you" ! You, Sir/Madam or you, people. Respectful form of both singular or plural ...

• ein Kind (grammatically neuter) = a child (no biological gender specified)

• ein Junge (grammatically masculine) = a boy (a male child)

• ein Mädchen (grammatically neuter) = a girl (a female child)

These are not interchangeable, neither in German nor in English.

ist = is isst = is eating I think

Ist = is , isst = eating
