Der, die, or das?

“Test: Der, die, or das? Choose the correct article.”

*runs screaming into the night* Gah!

Also, is it OK that I tend to giggle when I see words like die Lebensmittellieferung? A “sesquipedalian” word is a long one, a foot-and-a-half long, to take the meaning literally. I guess in German one-and-a-half feet long is just getting started.

Ein Ärgernis...

(Huh, is it really "ein?" Gah!)

#filkhaven was fun, yes.

Yep, it's "ein Ärgernis", if you think about just some annoying thing. If it's to be a special annoying thing, it's "das Ärgernis".
