  • Hi, please post a video how to use 'Sie' and 'Ihnen'. When we use Sie and when we use Ihnen?

    Wie geht es Ihnen? (Why Ihnen?)

    Woher kommen Sie? (Why Sie?)

  • Hello, it is too early for a video on this subject but here is a short answer for you:

    "Sie" in your example is a nominative. It is used because it is the subject of the question.

    "Ihnen" is the dative form of "Sie" and the dative is used in "Wie geht es ... ?".

    You might already know the informal way of asking these questions:

    Wie geht es dir?

    Woher kommst du?

    Here we can find the same structure:

    "du" is nominative and "dir" is the dative form of "du".

    I hope this helps.

  • merci beaucoup pour ces vidéos ça m'aide beaucoup a améliorer ma langue allemand merci infiniment et surtout keep it up !!

  • only 85,000 views? i've survived

  • @TheDra19 "wir fahren mit dem fahrrad" is not meant to be the answer to "wo ist der bus?"

  • thumbs up if you got all the right answers without pausing

  • @danghvu Tricky question. The "-es"-form should be the correct one for the most part, however, we usually get lazy with the "e" when the last syllable isn't stressed and use just "-s". You could say that the "e" got swallowed in the spoken language over time, which made it's way into the written language, too. However, the full "-es"-Form is required when the last syllable is stressed.

  • Why is there a bracket -(e)s on das Fahrrad ? Does it mean the 'e' is optional when use the word in genitive form ?

  • I never realized before that the word kindergarten translated to in German. Now I know, "children's garden"

  • i think there is a mistake ......how cao you answer the question( where is the bicycle ) by (we are cycling ) ???i cant understand this

  • How much before I can pass the C1 OSD test?
