So that's one phrase that stuck after 3 years of German...   ::) (the other is Zum Wohl! -- go figure)...

My question actually is:would it be Der Pagode, Das Pagode or Die Pagode?

As an Auto -- I'd think Das
And unlike some here, mine is more a he than a she -- so maybe Der?
Or because it ends in e -- a Die?

Hi J.

Since the Pagoda can be capricious i.e. moody,  at times,  it's a definite "die".....

Just kidding...its "die Pagode" named after the oriental  style buiding ....

Prost,

Markus
