Nouns in German have gender, i.e. masculine, feminine and neuter and apparently plural. This means, when you refer to it the pronoun you use depends on the gender of the noun being referred to.
| the table, it is nice | → | der Tisch, er ist schön. |
|---|---|---|
| the sun, it is warm | → | die Sonne, sie ist warm. |
| the museum, it is open | → | das Museum, es ist offen. |

Thanks for the reply! I knew that applied to relative pronouns, but not to personal pronouns like here. Thanks!
