The Accusative What is the Accusative Case? What is the Accusative Case? O Used to indicate direct objects in a sentence. O Direct objects receive the action of the verb. O Also used following certain prepositions. O The masculine article and pronoun changes its appearance in this Case. Direct Objects O We have them and use them in English and auf Deutsch. O A Direct Object receives the action of the verb. O Franz bought the CD. O Franz is the subject. He controls the action of the sentence. O bought is the action. O The CD is being bought. It is receiving the action of the verb. It is the direct object. O The noun or the pronoun identified as the Direct Object is put into the Accusative Case. O Articles and/or pronouns change appearance to reflect this. Object of a Preposition O Just like English, German has prepositions. O When a noun follows a preposition, in is called an object of a preposition. O When a noun follows a preposition defined as an “Accusative Preposition,” it uses accusative articles. Prepositions O Accusative Prepositions: O durch – through O für – for O gegen - against O ohne – without O um – at, around O bis – until O entlang - along Pronouns O Just like in English, pronouns are used to replace nouns auf Deutsch. O Usually, these nouns have previously been referred to in written, spoken, or listening mode of communication. O Pronouns also need to reflect the case they are in.
