"I like water."

Μετάφραση: Μου αρέσει το νερό.

I repeatedly remove and insert the article το during this exercise and always seem to keep making errors. Is there a rule i am missing here

[ssurprize]

"Το" goes before neuter nouns in the singular form.

"το νερό" water (neuter)

but "η ζάχαρη" sugar (female)

I know this. My problem is that the answers on this are not always the same. The keep randomly needing the article in the object position and I keep losing lives for no reason.

[ssurprize]

Here "το νερό" is in the subject position. Μου αρέσει το νερό - Το νερό αρέσει σε μένα. Το νερό is the subject of this sentence. And the rule is that subjects in greek sentences need articles.
It's like the German "Mir gefällt es - Es gefällt mir." "Es" is the subject. (and maybe Spanish "Me gusta"?)
