Which articles exist in the German language and how do I decline them?

In the German language, there are three articles, namely der (male), die (female) and das (neutral). These articles have to be changed according to the 4 different cases which might follow from various verbs.First case: der die dasSecond case: des der desThird case: dem der demFourth case: den die dasThe article you have to use for plural words is only ‘die’ (for male, female and neutral). And this is how to decline the plural article: die (first case), der (second case), den (third case), die (fourth case).
