Frequently Asked German Questions
What is the Dative form of "das" in German?
For example, the sentence "Ich gebe dem Kind das Spielzeug."
The sentence "Ich gebe _________ Kind das Spielzeug" uses the dative case to indicate that "Kind" is the indirect object of the verb "geben" (to give). The correct definite article for neuter nouns in the dative case is "dem," so the sentence reads "Ich gebe dem Kind das Spielzeug," translating to "I give the toy to the child" in English.
