1. ein hund
2. eine muetter (you put a e after a vowel with an umlaut.)
3. are you sure its "das madchen" I've only heard "die maedchen" which means girl. so that would be eine madchen. (a with umlaut)
5. einer worterbuch
6. eine familie

basically its ein for der. eine for die. einer for das. einem for words fater a preposition such as "mit" so "mit einem hut" would be "with a hat"

All of these words are in the sindular,so dont worry about plurals.
As far as the ein, eine question, it follows gender very closely.
Der is masculine.
Die is feminine.
Das is Neuter.
Ein is Masculine and Neuter.
Eine is only feminine.
Die can also indicate the plural of a noun, but in most cases the word itself will change form. Example:
Singular- Der Mann.....Plural - Die Männer.

The substitution would be as follows:
Ein Hund
Eine Mutter
Ein Madchen
Ein Worterbuch
Eine Familie.

Don't forget that all nouns are Always capitalized.

Der Ein
Die Eine
Das Ein
Die Plural, so no equivalent
