Der, die or das Ankunft? The correct article and plural

Der, die or das?

die Ankunft

feminine noun · arrival · level A2

The plural

die Ankünfte - in the plural, every German noun takes the article die.

Why die?

"Ankunft" doesn't follow any of the 35 gender rules - it belongs to the words you learn together with their article, as one unit: die Ankunft. That's exactly what the app's spaced repetition is for.
