FAQ about nominative and accusative articles

What is the main difference between nominative and accusative?
Nominative marks the subject. Accusative marks the direct object. If you want a simple refresher, read nominative and accusative.
Why does der change to den in many sentences?
Der is masculine nominative. Den is masculine accusative. In many beginner sentences, the object is a masculine noun, so you must switch to den.
Do die and das change in the accusative?
In singular, die stays die and das stays das in the accusative. That is why the quiz includes many sentences where only the masculine form changes.
How can I spot the direct object in a short sentence?
Ask whom or what after the verb. The answer is the direct object and needs the accusative. For a broader base, use cases in German.
Why do some quiz sentences start with time or place?
German word order is flexible. Time or place can come first, but the subject can still be nominative even if it comes later. This helps you practice real sentence patterns.
