Ich is the subject and therefore in nominative. Den/einen Apfel is the object and therefore in the accusative case.
Der Apfel ist grĂ¼n. In this case, der Apfel is the subject and is therefore in the nominative case, hence "der". :)
If you hover over the word it will pronounce it for you. It's pretty much like you have phonetically spelled out, but the p is much softer. It doesn't get it's own syllable, but rather is tacked on to the f. It's difficult to explain online, but your lips should pronounce the "pf" in one smooth motion.

"Pfiat!" Compiling what others have said before me: it's like Fiat but start with your tongue/mouth in P position, then "shoot the F out of your mouth" (like Pf in exasperated sound "Pfft!), next the ER is how British pronounce air (with muted r - "eh-ah") then finally D in German is like English T.
