I can ask and answer questions about friends and relationships using 'wer', 'wen', 'wem' and reflexive verbs.

Show transcript
The interrogative pronoun 'wer' becomes 'wen' when it is a direct object in the accusative. The interrogative pronoun 'wer' becomes 'wem' when it is an indirect object in the dative. Use a long [e] sound with 'wer', 'wen' and 'wem'. In questions with reflexive verbs, only subject and verb swap position. The reflexive pronoun now follows the subject. Where a verb is usually followed by a preposition, this comes before the question word, e.g., 'Mit wem?', 'Für wen?'.
