The German cases (=Fälle) are irritating some learners although they are pretty simple and few in number. Finnish has what? 18 cases? The rules about when to use them and what they have to look like are pretty clear. You will get a quick overview over the Dative in about 4 Minutes. You will get the most out of this video when you watch it after you have covered the following topics: Dative prepositions, two-way prepositions, Dative verbs, Verbs with two objects. Got to www.smartergerman.com/shop to get all 32 videos and a 120 pages handout with recaps and exercises for the price of a cinema ticket (popcorn not included).
