Cultural Tip
In German, the neuter pronoun “das” is used for objects, numbers, or concepts that have no gender. When confirming a number, Germans usually say the whole number as one word (e.g., “dreihundertfünf”) rather than spelling out each digit. The comma after “Ja” is optional in spoken language but required in written German.
