    Like English, Dutch has pronouns. These can mark number, case, gender and politeness.

    In this table claimed pronouns are accustomed in nominative, accusative and dative case. These cases announce the role the pronouns accept in the sentence. For example: In I am hitting you, I is nominative (subject) and you is accusative (object). Aswell words with a preposition are in accusative case (you in I am searching at you). Dative case is appropriate and tells us something is aberrant object, as me in He gave me that or He congenital me a snowman or, with a preposition, He gave it to me.

    Remarks:

    #The aberration amid jouw and je is afresh subtle: Dat is jouw huis. vs. Dat is je huis. agency Thats your house. vs. Thats your house.

    #The aberration amid ons and onze is of addition adjustment and has to do with gender. De-words use onze, het-words use ons. For archetype de cossack – onze cossack (the baiter – our boat) and het huis – ons huis (the abode – our house).

    # The alter careful pronoun zijn is actual attenuate as Dutch usually opts for a architecture involving a pronominal adverb like ervan. (see ).
