Q

MAN

A

The impersonal (or indefinite) pronoun man corresponds to the English impersonal pronoun “one”, but it is used much more frequently (and it doesn’t sound pretentious like “one” does in English).

It is used where in English we use “you” to mean “people in general” (as opposed to “you” referring to a specific person or people) or “everyone”.

  1. You’re not allowed to park here.
  2. How do you say that in German?
  3. You are what you eat.
  4. Man darf hier nicht parken.
