Danke und bis bald😊
Thank you, this is helpful. I personally don't know what enough of the grammer terms mean to necessarily get the full benifit from it, but it definitely cleared up a burning question.
Now with zu/zur/zum please ☝️
Zu/ zu der (die mit dativ)/zu dem (der oder das mit dativ)
When you cover the topic of cases and prepositions (every preposition in German has a case as well), these doubts should be clarified completely.
🙂👍
Out of the two sentences given below
1). Wir gehen täglich in sie Schule
2). Jeden Tag schwimmen wir mit unsrer Familie im Schwimmbad.
In the above sentences, there are two actions which have been taking place ( gehen, schwimmen)
As a result, one is in Akkusativ case and the other in Dativ
What makes it different and
How does it come so ?
In the first you are changing your location from "not in school" to "in school". This change in location is identified through the accusative case, which means we have to say "in die Schule".
In the second one, we are swimming in the pool. There is no change in location, as we are in the pool the entire time we are swimming. If we used the accusative case here instead of the dative, it would mean you are swimming into the pool, which means either there is another body of water connected to the pool from which you are swimming or you can swim on land and are swimming from the land into the pool. Neither of those are plausible options, so the only one that makes sense is the dative "im Schwimmbad".
