Show transcript
[ig] varies in pronunciation between German-speaking regions and sounds either like 'ich' or 'ik'. The verb 'gehen' means 'to go (on foot)' whereas the verb 'fahren' means 'to go (by transport)'. Prepositions describe the position of something, i.e., its location or movement, e.g., 'in' can mean 'in' or 'into'. Adverbs and adverbial phrases use the dative case when talking about where things are, e.g., 'im Zimmer'. Adverbs and adverbial phrases use the accusative case when talking about where things go, e.g., 'in das [ins] Zimmer'.
