"Ten zuidoosten hiervan is een prachtige grote maan te zien."

[u/Stars_And_Garters]

Hello,

I am a novice learner, English first language. This sentence was provided to me by Google Translate, but I have two questions.

1. What is the purpose of "ten" in this sentence? How would the sentence change without it?

2. When do I use "grote" instead of "groot"? It's because it's an adjective.

As for the -e ending, see:
