I'm not trying to correct you to be annoying, Guitar_Girl, but whenever you write in German and forget the umlaut where an umlaut is needed, the word isn't... the word. The letter with an umlaut is there for a reason. I mean, you can technically write "zwolf" or "Madchen" and most people will know what you're talking about, but "zwölf" and "Mädchen" are far more preferred (seeing as they are the correct form).

Or you can represent it with an e, right?
What does "Wie findest du die da drüben?" translate into English?My teacher gives more than one way. Whats the noun for die?

"How do you find over there" is a rough translation.

My teacher tells me "What do you think of her over there?" But also "How do you find her over there?"
Can the article be used sometimes instead of er or sie?

In Wie findest du die da drüben, why isn't there a word after die that begins with a capital letter!? Isn't die like the? Its looks like "How do you find THE over there!"

I think 'die da drüben' means something like; those over there.. 'What do you think of those (e.g. flowers (?)) over there?' (well, maybe)
