FAQ about Prepositions and Cases

What is the goal of this quiz?
You practice choosing the correct definite article after common prepositions. This helps you link a preposition with its case, so you can build correct sentences faster.
How do I know if a preposition needs dative or accusative?
Many prepositions have a fixed case. You can review the most important groups in the dative prepositions list and in the accusative prepositions overview.
Why does plural look different in dative?
Plural dative usually uses den and often adds n to the noun, for example den Kindern. Plural accusative uses die.
What is a simple way to avoid wrong articles?
First identify the preposition, then decide the case, and only then choose the article. If you need a full overview of how cases work, the cases guide is a solid reference.
Can I repeat this quiz with a new order?
Yes. The question order changes each time you reload the page, so you can practice again without memorizing one fixed sequence.
