Übung 9·3 Compose original phrases in the nominative case singular with the cue words provided. Example: manch manch junger Mann 1. manch 2. welch 3. etwas 4. mehr 5. wenig Now rewrite each phrase in the dative case with an appropriate dative preposition. Example: mit manch jungem Mann 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Plural-only determiners Certain determiners are used only in the plural. They identify quantities, and like the numbers cause adjectives to be declined like unpreceded adjectives. These determiners are einige, mehrere, viele, and wenige. You will notice that viele and wenige, although used in the same way as viel and wenig, decline, but the adjectives that follow viele and wenige still require the same endings as unpreceded adjectives. Some examples: Nominative: einige gute Kinder viele neue Schulen Accusative: einige gute Kinder viele neue Schulen Dative: einigen guten Kindern vielen neuen Schulen Genitive: einiger guter Kinder vieler neuer Schulen some good children many new schools Nominative: mehrere gute Kinder wenige neue Schulen Accusative: mehrere gute Kinder wenige neue Schulen Dative: mehreren guten Kindern wenigen neuen Schulen Genitive: mehrerer guter Kinder weniger neuer Schulen several good children few new schools Adjectives 71

In general, a comparative is formed by adding -er to the adjective: PoSITIVE comparative laut loud lauter louder schnell fast schneller faster interessant interesting interessanter more interesting The conjunction als (than) can be added to make the comparison: Dieser Wagen ist schneller als jener. This car is faster than that one. Superlatives used as predicate adjectives are formed by preceding them with the prepositional phrase am (an dem) and adding the suffix -sten: 72 Practice Makes Perfect German Sentence Builder
