Mastering German Relative Pronouns Explained Simply

Okay, welcome back to German with John Berlin. Today we are back with a new article verb and which quite much is used in relative with relative pronouns. Yes. So it's like whoever or whichever. Yes. Whomsoever or whichever. So it's also an article word. It's derived from the definita article they dasti. Yes. And it's made up of a combination of definite article and an adjective. Yes. So we just need to remember the adjective ending of definite article. The L shape being e the rest being en. I hope you remember that. Yes. So let's find out what is the meaning of whoever. Like for example whoever gets the maximum market German will get a free book from John Berlin. Yes. Okay. So something like that. So it's just about referring to a person who does something. Yes. So let's find out what the usages are. What are the cases? So let's say whomver whomever who bakes me a pizza I will invite to my party. Birthday party. Yes. And that word has gone down. We'll bring it up and write it here. And okay, just need to make a little space and write it here. Okay, so basically whomver who bakes me a pizza I'll invite to my birthday. So why whomver? Because whom do I invite to my birthday? Yes, I invite whomever who bakes me a pizza. So basically you got to consider the sentence I will invite to my birthday as the main sentence and this is a relative sentence. If you remove it it'll become whomever I will invite to my birthday who bakes me a pizza. Yes could be written like this as well. So let's get this back. Whomever who bakes me a pizza I'll invite to my birthday. Now this is just an example of how we use whomever or you could say whichever friend who bakes me a pizza I'll invite to my birthday. Okay. Now coming on to our table here. We could make this a little bigger so that you could people see it easily. Yes. Now here you see it's made up of this and it is accompanied with an adjective yik yik and the endings are like the l-shaped ending. The first three are e the middle two of uh uh the second and third the middle two of a kuzatifa e the rest are all e and the l shape. Yes. So with that in mind we could attempt any sentence. For example, to whomsoever who finds for me my dog, I'll give $100. Yes. So to whomsoever, basically the verb is I will give to whomsoever. The verb to give is tiff. That's why it's written here to whomsoever. That means we'll go to that means way. And it'll be considered by default masculine. Yes. When nothing is mentioned, no noun is mentioned. So we'll say diminigan comma now who finds for me my dog. So the verb is find and who finds what who is basically nominative. So we need to write nominative and it's again by default masculine. So we'll say they are relative pronoun like we learned earlier. There for me that's Mia what mine and hund yes wind death to find very good let's make the bigger okay okay again they mine and death how did we get this so then again the relative pronouns we learned earlier who finds for whom what so it's basically who for me mia ishmish Mia Diff what yes we get the hund mind hund of the so mine and hund and it's a neonat so the verb goes in the end conjugated for there so mine and hind uh I'll give $100 it'll be the verb to give is gaish hund dollars Yes, fantastic. So, it's like when you have a main sentence after the name in Zach, you always begin with a verb. Yes, that's the way it is. If you remove this, you'll see it's like Okay, whoever who wins the game will visit USA. So basically if I remove this, it'll be whoever will visit USA who wins the game. So basically we'll write whoever that's nominative. Who visits the USA? Whoever that's nominative again the yenigga. Now who wins the game? Who is nominative? We already know. and relative pronoun is there. Yes, it's uh by default masculine there. The game wins the thpil. Yes, given who wins what does. So that's why thus there given is the verb to conjugate given conjugated for. Yes. Uh visits will visit USA. So will is v the USA. What is the verb to visit? Bazooken. Bazuken. Fantastic. Yes. So we've written bazook. Okay. So I could make it bigger if you want. Hope you can see it. Or is it all right? We at the bizooken. Whoever who wins the game will visit the USA. I will in I will visit whomever who invites me first. Okay, that is the Santa Claus speaking. So I will visit whomever. So who visits whom? Is whomver whom is a by default masculine? We'll write ishan. We could complete this perfect sentence and comma who invites me first. So who is nominat? Yes. And we did it earlier in the table. It's just like definite article. They are the dasti. By default, we'll pick up their mish. What is the verb to invite? It's a separable verb. But when we put it in the end, we put it together. Yes. Okay. Okay, moving forward. I'll choose the project of whoever who has the best marks. Yes. So, yeah, as a little advice, you can keep your table for relative pronouns open though. I hope you remember them. Yes. So, let's get started. I'll choose the project of whoever. So, is Vada, what will you choose? the project that's avind that's neutral. So thus react. What is the verb to choose? It's houseen. Very good. I'll choose the project. Uh okay, I missed something here. Uh I'll choose the project of whoever is vas project. Uh now we just need to write basically of whoever of whoever of of whomever would be basically this again by default we pick up masculine so we could write ish valid project this yenigan house veen yes project I'll choose the project of whoever who has the best marks yeah so Who is again relative pronoun it's just like they they besten not or not is feminine here it's the best not yeah okay they are the best not fantastic yes now moving forward I'll invite the class of whichever girl whichever girls who beat the boys and race to the party. Okay. Now, okay, let's write ish vada. I will invite the class of whichever girl. So, the class of whichever girl would be the classer of whichever girls. Girls is plural. So, we'll write their yenigan fraen. Yes, they fra. Now, here we using it like whichever. So, there yen. Yes. Yes. started the class of their yinig and fraen ein laden to invite who beat the boys in race to the party so who is being referred to the girls and it's nominative so it's basically plural nominative plural because it's girls so the yeah whom do they meet the boys the ya they are rasa or in renan Yes, Renan would be the right word. I renan beat Schlagen. Yes, perfect. To the party. Right. So, let's have a look again party. So, this is a little bit off track. I could have said easily, I'll invite the class of whichever girls to the party who beat the boys in race. So this I could bring up and then the sentence would look much better. I'll invite the class of whichever girls to the party who beat the boys in race. party laden. Yes. Renlagen full stop. Yes. Now it looks much better. Fantastic. So hope you can see it. Perfect. So let's see if we have any more. Okay. For whomver to whom the leader gives the captainship. We all do a party. So for whomver is basically datif. Yes. For whom? To whom? For whom? So we'll go to dat. That's denigan. Yes. Yen. And the objective ending is. So the yenigan. Yes. To whom the leader gives the captain sheet. uh to whom is also Darth. So it's uh basically also Dataf. We'll choose by default masculine them who gives the leader their lighter uh the captaincy gives. So captaincy is thus it's basically what? So thus capetans armed thus capetain capetain armed gip very good I think this is too small for us to see let's make it bigger uh mah we do a party it's like mina party. So it's like for whomver to whom the leader gives the captaincy we do a party. Yes. Who does for whom what? So it's like yes. So it's we do for whomver what a party to whom the leader gives the captaincy. Okay. We could get this sentence in two parts. Fantastic. To whichever child who paints the best scenery, I'll give a prize. So basically it's again I'll give give is to basically uh it's a tiff verb who gives to whom. So I give to whichever that's yes to whichever child is basically uh num. So we'll say diminigan kind yes to whichever child who paints the best scenery who is as we know nominative relative pronoun it's like they're the thus we are replacing kin so it will be thus uh the best scenery paints the scenery is the land shaft the best landsh malt yes g is I'll give a prize ga is in prize very good who gives what I give a prize to whom to whichever child yes if I remove the middle line it'll still be meaningful let's find out it'll be like to whichever kid I give a prize yes who paints the best scenery I could have also put it here okay in the end nonetheless let's keep it the way it is make it a little bigger we can see it. So they thus the best land shaft malt gave and price fantastic. Whichever country which eliminates poverty will be the best country. So country is there the thus basically thus land and it's basically who will be the best country nominative. So we'll write whichever that is we'll go to the article word and we'll pick up nominative that's uh for the country that's uh neut neutral thus yen thus yen yes land which eliminates poverty so who eliminates poverty basically again nomin to eliminate or to kind of remove is besidon. So bizictic thus arm bizict will be the best land with thus best land z to be fantastic. Yes. Okay. So that was it. We learned a new article word that is whomver or whichever. Quite often used with relative pronouns. So it was a good mixture of article words and relative pronouns. While attempting these, keep both the tables open for your article word as well as your relative pronouns. And you could do these sentences once again by yourself. Fantastic. Thanks for joining in. This is John Berlin signing off. Till the next time.
