Was wissen die, das wir nicht wissen?

[Spielratte]

English Translation

What do they know that we don’t?

“Die” and not “sie”? Is there an implied noun that “die” refers to?

[anon94972132]

It is very similar to our recent discussion here:

Und die Leute? Was werden die sagen?

English Translation

And the people? What will they say?

This is clearly “die [Leute]” with the omitted noun implied. Can someone provide other examples of when the article is preferred over the pronoun?

In this case it is “die anderen” in opposite to “wir”.
