Two-way prepositions normally take the accusative if there's movement directed towards the object: Ich gehe in die Schule. (I'm going into school) They normally take the dative if there's no movement involved in the verb: Ich bin in der Schule. (I'm in school).

What part of speech must a word be if its plural?

In English, only nouns and verbs can be plural in form. Adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, conjunctions, and prepositions do not change their form. For example: 'The house is built of stone'. (Singular noun and verb.) 'The houses are built of stone.' (Plural noun and verb.) Some adjectives and pronouns are plural in meaning, for example 'many' and 'we'. However, I take it that you are enquiring about words that have both a singular and a plural form.


What are German articles?

Presuming you are referring to the language and grammar, then you mean the definite article (the) and the indefinite article (a or an) which proceed nouns.In German, nouns can have one of three different genders, thus the articles vary according to gender:In the singular, der, die and das are the masculine, feminine and neuter definite articles respectively, whilst ein, eine and ein are the equivalent.Note that these are the Nominative forms.
