German Lesson (107) - Two Way Prepositions - Dative OR Accusative - A2 Video Lecture | Learn German Language (Advanced Level): Course for Serious Learners

hi guys how to light up welcome back to
German with Jenny today I want to talk
to you about two-way prepositions in
German they are called vex ed Clapp
posizione n' they are on which means at
or by Alf which means on hint ah which
means behind in which means in naval
which means next to you Bob which means
above or over ulta which means under for
which means in front of and vision which
means between what's characteristic
about these prepositions is that they
either use the accusative case or they
use the dative case they use the
accusative case when there is a movement
involved you're moving from A to B from
one place to another
okay or going over a border and we use
the dative case when there is a location
or a position involved okay we're not
moving anywhere
we're staying put I can demonstrate the
difference to you by looking at the two
English prepositions in and in - all
right you would say I'm sitting in my
office all right but you would say I am
going into my office all right so using
in means that you are talking about
being in the office and using in to
means you aren't going into the office
you're going somewhere okay so this
happens in German as well but we don't
only do that with in but we do that with
all the other prepositions that I just
gave you
let's take a look at some examples
it's-it's-it's a off-island Stuart I am
sitting on a chair it's that summation
of an inch - ooh
