Understanding German Adjective Endings in Accusative Case
In German, adjectives change their endings depending on the gender, number, and case of the noun they describe. The accusative case is used when the noun is the direct object of a sentence, meaning it receives the action of the verb.
Important Points
  • Adjectives take different endings based on the gender of the noun: masculine, feminine, neuter, or plural.
  • The definite article (the) and indefinite article (a/an) change the adjective endings.
  • For masculine nouns with a definite article, the adjective ends in -en.
  • For feminine nouns with a definite article, the adjective ends in -e.
  • For neuter nouns with a definite article, the adjective ends in -e.
  • For plural nouns with a definite article, the adjective ends in -en.
  • For masculine nouns with an indefinite article, the adjective ends in -en.
  • For feminine nouns with an indefinite article, the adjective ends in -e.
  • For neuter nouns with an indefinite article, the adjective ends in -es.
  • For plural nouns with no article, the adjective ends in -e.
Examples
  • Ich sehe den großen Hund.
  • Sie kauft eine rote Blume.
  • Er hat ein kleines Haus.
To use adjectives correctly in the accusative case, you need to know the gender and number of the noun and whether you are using a definite or indefinite article. This will help you choose the right adjective ending.
