Although English speakers love to laugh at the German word fahrt, it does not mean fart. "Das fahrt" would have to be either "die Fahrt" (the trip) or "das fährt" (it drives).
Das Ende is German for the end.
(das) Pferd = (the) horse
Das Mutterschiff' = the mother ship
Was ist das = what ist that
(das) Tagebuch
Das Geschenk
"That is not" is "das ist nicht" in English.
It means "the" ^this is kinda right^ Das depending on its context can mean, this, that, or the. Like many German words 'das' encompasses more of an idea than a single meaning. Das basically means a singular thing.
English "the gum" means German "das Gummi".
"Vas is das" is not a correct phrase in any language. It may be a mix of German and English, where "was ist das" in German means "what is that" in English.
The German word for "gift/present" is das Geschenk. This should not be confused with das Gift, which means "poison."
Depending on the context it can mean: What subject is that?
