Understanding the German Article and Pronoun Ihr
Understanding the German Article and Pronoun Ihr Frequently on occasion German students are befuddled about ââ¬Å¾ihrââ¬Å" (and companions). No big surprise since entering ââ¬Å¾ihrââ¬Å" into google interpret furnishes us with the accompanying rundown: hertheiryour (Sir/Maââ¬â¢am)to heryou-all In the event that I have five alternatives to look over in some other than my local language, Iââ¬â¢d be befuddled as well. Fortunately I grew up with German. Be that as it may, you most likely have not been so lucky (from a language learning perspective obviously) so let me bring some light into your obscurity. The issue is the missing mindfulness in regards to the contrasts between an article and a pronoun.â If I isolate the above rundown of potential interpretations into these two classifications things will get a piece more clear as of now: à Article à Pronounâ à her (vehicle) à to her (canââ¬â¢t put ââ¬Å¾carââ¬Å" hereâ à their (vehicle) à all of you (canââ¬â¢t put ââ¬Å¾carââ¬Å" here)â à your (Sir/Maââ¬â¢am) à à A couple of models: à â à Ihre Mutter kommt am Wochenende zu Besuch.â â â à Her/Their/Your mom stays with this weekend.â â â à Notice that thereââ¬â¢s no distinction in ââ¬Å¾ihreââ¬Å" whether you state ââ¬Å¾herââ¬Å", ââ¬Å¾theirââ¬Å" or ââ¬Å¾yourââ¬Å". à â à Ich gebe ihr einen Kuss. à à â â à I give her a kissâ â à There is no thing after ââ¬Å¾ihrââ¬Å" à â à Ihr kã ¶nnt hier nicht bleiben. à à â â à You (individuals) canââ¬â¢t stay here.â â à â There is no thing after ââ¬Å¾ihrââ¬Å" On the off chance that you can recognize an article from a pronoun, you improve your odds of settling on the correct decision. Do you know what the contrast between these two is? An article is never on itââ¬â¢s own. It is consistently (!) joined by a thing (words that can have à â à a ââ¬Å¾theââ¬Å" before them like ââ¬Å¾the carââ¬Å"). Articles come in different structures: der, ein-, mein-, bites the dust ,à welch-, kein-A pronoun stands ace thing for example for a thing which implies that it makes any thing redundant.â With ââ¬Å¾ihrââ¬Å" this is somewhat precarious yet let me take another pronoun to represent this. à â à ââ¬Å¾sein Autoââ¬Å"â â à â â à vsâ â à â â à ââ¬Å¾ihnâ â â â his vehicle à him (vehicle?) Testing your comprehension Would you be able to distinguish the pronouns and the articles in the accompanying sentences? à â à Sie fragte ihren Mann nach seiner Meinung.â â à Aber ihr Mann antwortete ihr nicht.â â à She approached her significant other for his supposition. à But her better half didnââ¬â¢t answer her. à [Scroll down to the finish of this article to discover the answer.] Did you discover all pronouns and articles? Great. At that point letââ¬â¢s proceed onward. Endings Presently whatââ¬â¢s with the endings? Articles just as pronouns can have endings and those rely upon the thing that they are going with or supplanting. Two models: à â à Kennst du ihren Mann?à à à à Do you know her husband?â â à Nein, ihren kenne ich nicht, aber deinen.â à No, hers I donââ¬â¢t know, however yours. You will have seen that the article ââ¬Å¾ihren (Mann)ââ¬Å" just as the pronoun ââ¬Å¾ihrenââ¬Å" do both have a similar closure as the two of them allude to ââ¬Å¾Mannââ¬Å". Linguistically speaking ââ¬Å¾Mannââ¬Å" is manly and remains in the accusative case. In any case, taking a gander at the English interpretation you will understand that there is an unmistakable distinction between those as an examination of ââ¬Å¾herââ¬Å" and ââ¬Å¾hersââ¬Å" appear. So far it even appears that it doesnââ¬â¢t matter at all whether we have an article before us or a pronoun. That calls for one more model: à â à Magst du ihr Auto?â â à Do you like her vehicle? à â à Nein, ihres mag ich nicht, aber deins.â à No, hers I donââ¬â¢t like, yet yours. What's more, presently we at long last have a distinction. The accompanying table ought to delineate the distinctions in another structure: à à Article à Pronoun manly à ihr.x Mann à à ihrer fix à ihr.x Auto à à ihres female à ihre Freundin à ihre plural à à ihre Freundinnen à ihre Another intriguing perception is that a pronoun consistently has an article finishing while an article now and again doesnt (ihr.x Mann).à This is because of the way that there are three cases where there is no consummation toward the finish of an article: à à masc.â â à â â à neuterâ â à â â à feminineâ â à â â à plural Nominativeâ â à ein à einâ â à â â à Accusativeâ à ein Dative Genitive In these three cases the accompanying articles don't get an ending:â ein, mein (and all articles of a similar family: dein, sein, ihr, unser, euer, ihr), kein In every other case they generally have a closure which relates with those of the pronouns. Outline To sum up: articles and pronouns oftenâ look the same and must be recognized by their buddy or an absence of it.article-and pronoun endings just contrast in three cases (see last table)pronouns supplant a thing and along these lines are never found straightforwardly close to a thing This video causes you a bitâ with the fundamental (individual) pronouns, er, es and sie. Lã ¶sung from above: à â à Sie (pronoun) fragte ihren Mann (article) nach seiner Meinung (article). à â â à Aber ihr Mann (article) antwortete ihr (pronoun) nicht.
