In this video, I explain a simplified assumption for the Akkusativ and Nominativ that helps many beginners: The verb "sein" is always in the Nominativ, while all other verbs are in the Akkusativ – until you learn Dativ verbs! This assumption is a useful entry point to understand the difference between Nominativ and Akkusativ and apply it immediately in everyday life.
But be careful! This rule only applies at the beginning and helps you avoid basic mistakes until you are familiar with Dativ verbs. In this video, we will go step by step through how this assumption works, when it applies, and which exceptions you need to keep in mind later.
Enjoy learning – and don't forget to leave your questions in the comments!
