Genitive case, that is my apple?
Why is it: this is my apple?
The question would be: whose apple is this?
That's my apple, right?

Practice German dictations online?

Hello dear users. Can anyone here kindly recommend a website where dictation is done? It doesn't necessarily have to be free, but I'd appreciate any feedback. Thank you very much and have a nice start to the weekend!
The question is correct. Not all questions with the genitive question word “wessen” give answer with a genitive. This is a bit confusing in German.
Above all, consider one:
Ownership (“Possessiv”) can be expressed by both Kasus (Genitiv), by prepositions (“from me”) and by pronouns (“my, your”).
The genitive is even more rare. You can answer a variety of questions:
This statement has nothing to do with a possible question, but stands for itself.
It’s a classic predicative set. “That” and “my apple” are both nominatives. Also compare sentences like “I’m a good pilot.” or “She’ll be a doctor.”
Thank you very much. 😊
The question is “who or what”, you ask here for the predictive, which determines the demonstrative pronoun and at the same time subject “Das” (deictically and adjectively). It’s in the nominative: my apple. If you ask the question “wessen” you ask for the Genitivattribute, the answer would be “My”.

Hello TeclaG
Whose? Genetic
Whose apple is that?

Also here is “my” Nominativ Singular, strongly declinated, reference to apple.
was rather intuitive.. hmm.. does not give an exception to any rule – terrible sometimes the German language – has for all the rules but no one holds
Can you give me another sentence with my nominative singing?
Upbrunce has a statement 🙂
“Sei” or “is” makes no difference. Both are precedent sets with the predictive in the nominative (congruent to the subject).
The strong declination in these sentences makes it even more confusing, but it doesn’t change anything in the simple predicative.
That’s mine.
That’s mine. (my apple)
That’s mine. (my child)
How about the answer “he is mine” for the apple?
A clear masculine that refers to the apple but not that of my
As an example. .
