Der, die or das?

der Einzelhandel

masculine noun · retail · level B1

The plural

"Einzelhandel" is normally used only in the singular.

Why der?

"Einzelhandel" doesn't follow any of the 35 gender rules - it belongs to the words you learn together with their article, as one unit: der Einzelhandel. That's exactly what the app's spaced repetition is for.
