    The girl in German is neutral, so it's "das" Mädchen. Also pay attention to the umlauts; if you don't have the keys use ae for ä, oe for ö and ue for ü. I guess you're referring to the girl's young friends? If so, it's "Das Mädchen hat vier junge Freunde". Maybe you mean school day friends? That" "Jugendfreunde" (jung = young; Jugend=youth). The next sentence: "Alle der jungen Freunde haben Hütten" (they all have huts, right? Or did you mean "hats"? That's "Hut" in singular and "Hüte" in plural). Again, umlauts. The next is a tricky one because of the word order: "Wenn der Wind kommt, fliegen die Hütten auf" (it doesn't make much sense though; you probably mean that the wind takes their hats? That would be "Wenn der Wind kommt, fliegen die Hüte auf". Better use "wenn" than "wann" for "If..."; "wann" means "when" and is used in questions. Keep on going, the German language is a b****, but it's worth it :-)

    Das Mädchen hat vier Freunde. Jeder der Jungs hat Hüte auf. Wenn der Wind kommt, fliegen die Hüte davon. I think you mean this:-)
