Hi,

I have never succeeded to se definite article  before words in Gothic.
Indefinite like  'a house' or 'that house, this house' et c. I rather
see the definite in the ending of the word like in Scandinavian
languages or rather the word is bowed  according to it's function in a
special sequence. I am of course not very good in Gothic so I might be
wrong.

Best
Ingemar
