1.

the same

Opposite: derselbe
(Officially, it is one word, because it can NOT be used like an adjective. That would be "der gleiche". Many Germans do it wrong, though, and I think the rule is dumb.)
Examples
  • Er trägt dieselbe Jacke wie gestern.
  • He's wearing the same jacket as yesterday.

I am not quite sure how to use dieselbe und derselbe. Ich wusste nicht das sie existieren.
Ich glaube ich verstehe dasselbe. This is the most generic of them – referencing about how two situations are the same (oder?). Are dieselbe und derselbe used when you are comparing things which have a gender? Can you explain a bit more? Thank you.
