    It Es
    Us Uns
    You Euch
    Them Sie


    Ich sehe  dich I see you
    Sie sieht mich She sees me
    Wir sehen euch We see you


  • They also change when they perfom as indirect objects:


  • to me (me) Mir
    to you (you) Dir
    to him (him) Ihm
    to her (her) Ihr
    to it (it) Ihm
    to us (us) Uns
    to you (you) Euch
    to them (them) Ihnen


    Ich helfe dir I help you
    Sie hilft mir She helps me
    Ihr helft uns You help us
