Introduction to Bisaya Grammar: the Definite Article "Ang"

Unlike German, which has three forms of the article "the", der, die, das, Bisaya has only one:  Ang.
      
German:  Der Löffel. (Masculine)
               Die Gabel. (Feminine)
               Das Messer. (Neutral)

English:  The spoon. (Neutral)
             The fork. (Neutral)
              The knife.  (Neutral)   

Bisaya:  Ang kutsara. (Neutral)
             Ang tinidor. (Neutral)
             Ang kutsilyo. (Neutral)

Simple, is it not?
