45. Object of a Preposition O Just like English, German has prepositions. O When a noun follows a preposition, in is called an object of a preposition. O When a noun follows a preposition defined as an “DativePreposition,” it uses dative articles.

46. Prepositions O Dative Prepositions: O aus – out of, from O außer – besides O bei – at, near, with O mit – with O nach – after, towards (a country, city, home) O seit – since O von – from O zu - to

47. zum Beispiel O Ich gehe zur Schule. O Contraction: zur = zu der O Wir fahren mit dem Bus. O Nach der Schule mache ich meine Hausaufgabe. O Er wohnt bei seiner Oma.

48. Pronouns O Just like in English, pronouns are used to replace nouns auf Deutsch. O Usually, these nouns have previously been referred to in written, spoken, or listening mode of communication. O Pronouns also need to reflect the case they are in.
