     Grammar overview
     There are two grammatical types of nouns en Danish (they have 
     to genders, but not like masculine and feminine; they do not 
     depend on real gender, so it’s like a grammatical feature.) 
     These two types are called common gender and neutral gender. 
     Every time you learn a new noun, you should remember its 
     gender. i.e. ‘en’ or ‘et’, because their reference to a particular 
     gender affects their grammatical behaviour, that is to say what 
     forms they make in a sentence. The only two forms which are 
     gender dependent here below are singular definite and 
     indefinite. In the plural it is all the same what the gender the 
     noun has. There is no a 100%-rule as why certain words belong 
     to en-group and certain ones to et-group. So we have to 
     remember.
     In the plural Danish nouns take endings -er, -r, or -e or they do 
     not change the form. That is two say there are four patterns for 
     making the plural from.
     There are a few exceptions, which change their stem, like “en 
     mand, 2 mænd”, like in English ‘man- men’, et barn - børn (a 
     child-children). These exceptions we also have to remember. 
     See the table below for more examples on the patterns.
                    ubekendt               bekendt              ubekendt              bekendt

                    (indefinite        (definite singular     (indefinite plural;    (definite plural; 
                     singular;          like the apple)            NB!                  NB!
                       NB!                                     like apples)       like the apples)
                  like an apple)

              The dictionary tells you the gender of the noun and gives the info about the plural 
              forms. Please, note, that some nouns may double the letter to preserve the vowel 
              quality. 
              e.g. http://ordnet.dk/ddo/ordbog?query=kat&search=S%C3%B8g
              kat1 substantiv, fælleskøn

              Min søster har to katte. (My sister has two cats.) Kattene er hvide. (The cats are 
              white.)
