What is the Dative Case form of 'Ich' Personal Pronoun?

Home > German Language > Dative Case > What is the Dative Case form of 'Ich' Personal Pronoun?

For example, the sentence "Könntest du mir bitte das Salz reichen?"

The dative case form of the personal pronoun 'ich' (you) is 'mir'. In the sentence "Könntest du mir bitte das Salz reichen?" ('Could you please me pass the salt?'), 'mir' is used as the indirect object, receiving the action of the verb. Here, the verb 'reichen' (to pass) requires an indirect object to indicate to whom the salt is passed. 'Ich' changes to 'mir' in the dative case to reflect this role.
