Dativ

Swedish/english

 Jag ger dig en gåva= I give you a gift ( in this case "dig" or "you" is dative case)

German/english

Ich gebe dir ein Geschenk= i give you a gift  ( "dir" is the dative case in german)

 Finnish:

Annan sinulle lahjan= i give you a gift ( "sinulle" in this case is not a dative in finnish, but "sinulle"

replaces the dative case, used in german languages. "Sinulle" or -lle is a case form in finnish called

"allatiivi")

sinä- sinulle

koira- koira-lle= dog- to the dog



Huh, huh, i am used to conjugate almost every word in my mother language somehow or iadd a

simple or double suffix , so i am glad that English, norwegian and other languages are easier. I

translate from italian into norwegian also.


I do not try to market or sell anything with my blog, i have enough of expenses myself, so let`s take a

break from this Money- Money world with grammar, why not?
