It's a matter of learning en or ett as part of the word because they are part and parcel of the word and are not transferable. Many words, such as in Dutch and Swedish have different a's and must be learned as a permanent part of the word. Even the words that are 'the' are different, such as katter, spindeln, ankan, vargen, etc. En and ett have to be learned as one word with their noun. That makes it easier to remember.
What in blazes is she doing to me??? She (Ms. Red) seems to have a hatred for me because she wrongs me for everything, including no sound yet, one sound only, words and sounds that are exactly right, etc. I don't want to do many things that she wrongs anymore because I know she's going to wipe me out. It's so frustrating!!!
