I. Indirect Objects
Nouns that act as the indirect object in German sentences are in the dative case. Not surprisingly, when the indirect object is replaced with a pronoun, the pronoun is also in the dative. For the most part, these pronouns change to dative from their accusative and nominative forms. In English, we distinguish between direct and indirect objects by using prepositions. While this is also done in German, it is also common to find the meaning of prepositions like “for” and “to” included in the dative pronoun itself.
