Q

The following prepositions always take the dative case:

Dative Prepositions
AUS…out / from
AUSSER…outside of / except for
BEI…by / with
MIT…with
NACH…after
SEIT…since
VON…from / of
ZU…to
GEMAß…according to
GEGENÜBER…across from

You may notice some prepositions have multiple meanings. Mastering prepositions in German will take some trial and error. Consider the sentences: She is angry with me. She is angry at me. Which is correct? Is it with or at? What is the actual meaning of with and at? Does anyone really know? The same problem happens in German. In many cases, more than one preposition can fit, and the prepositions themselves have many translations based on what verb they follow.
