   Which case follows a two-way preposition for a destination?

   Answer: Accusative

   Why: The nine two-way prepositions use accusative for a destination, but dative for location, even when someone moves within it.

2. 2 Easy

   How do you form the German informal plural imperative for ihr?

   Answer: Present verb form without the pronoun

   Why: To tell friends to 'Come!', you simply say 'Kommt!' dropping the pronoun 'ihr', unlike formal 'Kommen Sie!' which keeps 'Sie'.

3. 3 Medium

   In standard written German, which conjunction keeps the verb second?

   Answer: denn

   Why: The five position zero conjunctions form the mnemonic ADUSO: aber, denn, und, sondern, oder; none of them touches the word order.

4. 4 Easy

   Which reflexive pronoun corresponds to "er", "sie", and "es" in German?

   Answer: sich

   Why: Unlike English which changes between himself, herself, and itself, German uses 'sich' for all third-person reflexive pronouns.

5. 5 Easy

   Why does word order stay unchanged after the German conjunction "aber"?

   Answer: It occupies position zero

   Why: Unlike aber, weil sends the conjugated verb to the end of its clause.

6. 6 Easy

   What is the comparative form of the German adjective 'gut'?

   Answer: Besser

   Why: Duden lists just a handful of irregulars: gut/besser, viel/mehr, hoch/höher, nah/näher. The regular '-er' ending is still there in bess-er.
