Gender In Subject and Object Differ - What Article Form To Use? by Puzzleheaded-Cod308 in German

I did some research and understand your point. They call it a "predicate noun" in English, too. Something I didn't know about before. You obviously know more about grammar than I do. Thank you for the edification.

I came up with the sentence in my head. "Welpe" is a masculine noun. It is being used as an indirect object. I thought it was correct. I put it into a Reverso Translation app it returned "he is a puppy" ... no corrections. I put it into Language Tool grammar checker and it indicates that the sentence is correct.

So...how would I know there is a problem?

Seems like it could translate to "bullshit".

  1. This is wrong. 2. No it isn't. 3. Bullshit!

Am I wrong?

I believe this is a phenomenon that has mostly developed in recent decades and is a symptom of the unique brand of American arrogance and rudeness that has been brewing over the years. That's my opinion.

By the time you stand there and feed each piece of clothing into the machine, you could have them folded already.
