Accusative

Note that the very common expression "es gibt" (there is/are)

requires that the noun be in the accusative case

because it is grammatically a direct object.

1. The nominative case isn’t always straightforward.

Double nominative

generally, if the sentence only uses some form of the verb sein (to be),

then both nouns in the sentence are in the nominative case.

It makes sense if you think about it,

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

DIE neue Schülerin WAR EINE Französin aus dem Süden.

Sentences without nominative

One of the first things that learners of German should learn not to say is

ich bin kalt

The proper German way to express discomfort when the window is open is

mir ist kalt

3. You have to learn which verbs are always dative.

danken fehlen folgen

gefallen gehören glauben

helfen passieren erlauben

bleiben

5. The most common 30 prepositions can be defined by these four groups.

(1) Dual Prepositions

Dual prepositions, which all describe location,

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

(2) Dative Prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

ab, aus, bei,

mit, nach, seit,

von, zu, & gegenüber.

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

gegen, ohne, um & entlang

(4) Genitive prepositions

the list of genitive prepositions is a bit long,

so I’ve just gathered a few of the most common ones:

außerhalb, innerhalb, jenseits,

während, trotz, & dank

Accusative

Note that the very common expression "es gibt" (there is/are)

requires that the noun be in the accusative case

because it is grammatically a direct object.

1. The nominative case isn’t always straightforward.

Double nominative

generally, if the sentence only uses some form of the verb sein (to be),

then both nouns in the sentence are in the nominative case.

It makes sense if you think about it,

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

DIE neue Schülerin WAR EINE Französin aus dem Süden.

Sentences without nominative

One of the first things that learners of German should learn not to say is

ich bin kalt

The proper German way to express discomfort when the window is open is

mir ist kalt

3. You have to learn which verbs are always dative.

danken fehlen folgen

gefallen gehören glauben

helfen passieren erlauben

bleiben

5. The most common 30 prepositions can be defined by these four groups.

(1) Dual Prepositions

Dual prepositions, which all describe location,

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

(2) Dative Prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

ab, aus, bei,

mit, nach, seit,

von, zu, & gegenüber.

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

gegen, ohne, um & entlang

(4) Genitive prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

Accusative

Note that the very common expression "es gibt" (there is/are)

requires that the noun be in the accusative case

because it is grammatically a direct object.

1. The nominative case isn’t always straightforward.

Double nominative

generally, if the sentence only uses some form of the verb sein (to be),

then both nouns in the sentence are in the nominative case.

It makes sense if you think about it,

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

DIE neue Schülerin WAR EINE Französin aus dem Süden.

Sentences without nominative

One of the first things that learners of German should learn not to say is

ich bin kalt

The proper German way to express discomfort when the window is open is

mir ist kalt

3. You have to learn which verbs are always dative.

danken fehlen folgen

gefallen gehören glauben

helfen passieren erlauben

bleiben

5. The most common 30 prepositions can be defined by these four groups.

(1) Dual Prepositions

Dual prepositions, which all describe location,

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

(2) Dative Prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

ab, aus, bei,

mit, nach, seit,

von, zu, & gegenüber.

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

gegen, ohne, um & entlang

(4) Genitive prepositions

the list of genitive prepositions is a bit long,

so I’ve just gathered a few of the most common ones:

außerhalb, innerhalb, jenseits,

während, trotz, & dank

Accusative

Note that the very common expression "es gibt" (there is/are)

requires that the noun be in the accusative case

because it is grammatically a direct object.

1. The nominative case isn’t always straightforward.

Double nominative

generally, if the sentence only uses some form of the verb sein (to be),

then both nouns in the sentence are in the nominative case.

It makes sense if you think about it,

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

Sentences without nominative

One of the first things that learners of German should learn not to say is

ich bin kalt

The proper German way to express discomfort when the window is open is

mir ist kalt

3. You have to learn which verbs are always dative.

danken fehlen folgen

gefallen gehören glauben

helfen passieren erlauben

bleiben

5. The most common 30 prepositions can be defined by these four groups.

(1) Dual Prepositions

Dual prepositions, which all describe location,

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

(2) Dative Prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

ab, aus, bei,

mit, nach, seit,

von, zu, & gegenüber.

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

gegen, ohne, um & entlang

(4) Genitive prepositions

the list of genitive prepositions is a bit long,

so I’ve just gathered a few of the most common ones:

außerhalb, innerhalb, jenseits,

während, trotz, & dank

Accusative

Note that the very common expression "es gibt" (there is/are)
requires that the noun be in the accusative case

because it is grammatically a direct object.

1. The nominative case isn’t always straightforward.

Double nominative

generally, if the sentence only uses some form of the verb sein (to be),

then both nouns in the sentence are in the nominative case.

It makes sense if you think about it,

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

because the sentence doesn’t actually have an object –

it just has the same subject twice.

Sentences without nominative

One of the first things that learners of German should learn not to say is

ich bin kalt

The proper German way to express discomfort when the window is open is

mir ist kalt

3. You have to learn which verbs are always dative.

danken fehlen folgen

gefallen gehören glauben

helfen passieren erlauben

bleiben

5. The most common 30 prepositions can be defined by these four groups.

(1) Dual Prepositions

Dual prepositions, which all describe location,

are usually the first set that are taught in German classrooms.

They include:

an, auf, hinter,

in, neben, über,

unter, vor & zwischen.

If the subject of the sentence is not moving,

then the nouns that these prepositions form prepositional phrases with

are in the dative case.

(2) Dative Prepositions

The next set of prepositions are always in the dative:

ab, aus, bei,

mit, nach, seit,

von, zu, & gegenüber.

(3) Accusative Prepositions

The accusative prepositions are:

bis, durch, für,

gegen, ohne, um & entlang

(4) Genitive prepositions

the list of genitive prepositions is a bit long,

so I’ve just gathered a few of the most common ones:

außerhalb, innerhalb, jenseits,

während, trotz, & dank
