German Nouns and There Articles

Each noun in German has a corresponding gender and associated article which you need to learn in conjunction with the noun and determines many subsequent German grammatical rules.

There are general rules or grouping of nouns either by subject area or the last letters of the word, but there are always exceptions to these rules. A large proportion of German grammar hinges on knowing the base (nominative case) article of a noun.
