Hallo! Check out my possessive adjectives video for how to use them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g33Ko3argLiAhqcsi=PwT9U8BVBnFjE1uW

[@samirrasulov4781]

Danke schön. I would like to have brief question if you favored to answer. If the genetive case of "er" is "ihm", what is "sein"? Everywhere I see it.

[@HerrFerguson]

‘sein’ is the possessive adjective ‘his’

It's time to learning 😌

[@PitsyG14]

It’s time to learn without ing , Verbs after “to” are usually infinitive .

Danke dir

Gerne ☺️

[@darklight5316]

One more question. Mein papa freut sich auf den indischen film. Isnt auf used with the dative case i am a little bit confused about that and the various ways you can use auf , what does it actually mean?

[@HerrFerguson]

In my accusative and dative case videos I discuss dual prepositions. It usually means ‘on’ (when the surface is horizontal) but can have more idiomatic translations, such as ‘to’ in ‘mein Papa freut sich auf…’ (my dad is looking forward to…)

[@darklight5316]

@@HerrFerguson yes i have watched the video if there isnt movement dative if it does accusative, but i didnt know what hapens when you use it with a different meaning if that makes any sanse..

[@darklight5316]

@@HerrFerguson also one more thing😅 I cant catch the difference between nehmen and nimmen

[@HerrFerguson]

@darklight5316 Afraid in those cases you just have to learn it!

[@HerrFerguson]

There's no such thing as 'nimmen'. 'nehmen' is the verb, 'nimm' is the stem used with 2nd person singular (du) and 3rd person singular (er/sie/es/man) in the present tense.

[@darklight5316]

I have a quick question. Ich habe mich in ihn verliebt. Why isnt it ihm , first of all there is IN and no movement and secondly , isnt he the indirect object because mich is the direct object?

[@HerrFerguson]

The movement / no movement rule is only for when the prepositions refer to physical location like ‘in the park’ In the phrase ‘sich in jmdn verlieben’ it’s an idiomatic translation so you just have to learn which case to use. The indirect object is the recipient or beneficiary, and won’t come after a preposition. Barely any sentences have an indirect object.

[@darklight5316]

@@HerrFerguson that actually helped me a lot , thank you for your support.

The YYY of XXX is actually quite common among the Indo-European languages. Whereas XXX's YYY is more common in Asian languages.

[@darklight5316]

Hi mr feerguson i have a question Alex hat kopfschmerzen und ihm tut der halz weh. Why ihm?

[@HerrFerguson]

Because ‘der Hals’ is causing the pain (subject - nominative), the ‘weh’ (pain) is being caused (direct object - accusative) and he is the beneficiary or recipient of the pain (indirect object - dative)

[@darklight5316]

@@HerrFerguson could i suggest that you make a more in depth video about the indirect object in sentences.

[@HerrFerguson]

@darklight5316 That’s a fair point! I’ll try to get to it soon

[@darklight5316]

@@HerrFerguson thank you a lot for all the support to everyone who is trying to learn german. The indirect objeckt is the recipient of the action , it seems easy enough. But there are sentences that are really tricky and a video would help a lot of us.

[@darklight5316]

Hi mr feerguson , i have a quick question. Warum hasst du deinen exfreund eingeladen. Why isnt it deinem exfreund isnt he the person receiving the invitation?

[@HerrFerguson]

Good question. In this case, he’s being invited, so is the direct object. If the sentence were ‘Why are you giving him an invitation?’ then he would be the indirect object (receiving the invite) and the invitation would be the direct object (being given)
