Relative clauses are one of the most important — and confusing — grammar topics at B1 level German.
In this lesson (Lesson 37), you will finally learn how to use relative pronouns in Akkusativ and Dativ correctly, without guessing and without confusion.

Many learners ask:

When do I use der / die / das in Akkusativ?
When does the relative pronoun change to den / dem?
How do I know which case to use inside a relative clause?

👉 This video answers all these questions step by step, using a contrastive teaching method that makes the logic crystal clear.
🔹 What you will learn in this lesson

✔ Difference between Nominativ, Akkusativ, and Dativ in relative clauses
✔ How the verb inside the relative clause decides the case
✔ Sentence structure of Relativsätze with Akkusativ & Dativ
✔ How to avoid the most common learner mistakes
✔ How to sound more natural and advanced in German (B1 level)

🔹 How the lesson is structured

1️⃣ First, we revise relative pronouns in Nominativ
2️⃣ Then, we use the same main sentence and change only the relative clause
3️⃣ You clearly see why the case changes
4️⃣ Each example is realistic, logical, and exam-relevant

🔹 Example from the lesson

Base sentence:
➡ Er sucht den Job.

Relative clause (Nominativ):
➡ Er sucht den Job, der langfristige Sicherheit bietet.

Relative clause (Akkusativ):
➡ Er sucht den Job, den er wegen der langfristigen Sicherheit annehmen möchte.

➡ Same noun. Same meaning.
➡ Only the case of the relative pronoun changes — and now you know why.
