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

Der, die or das?

das Recht

neuter noun · right · level B1

The plural

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

Why das?

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