Predicative adjective in German
Most adjectives can occur before or after a noun, like "the red car" or "the car is red". In case of predicative adjectives, the adjective follows the noun of a sentence. Very often, the predicative adjective and the noun of a sentence are seperated by a verb. It's important to know, that predicative adjectives do not change their style!

Verbs introducing predicative adjectives
Predicate adjectives are one of the different types of adjectives and therefore it's imporant to know when to use predicate adjectives. In German, predicate adjectives are used when the adjective follows a form of the verbs werden, sein or bleiben.
The predicative adjective remains in the same form, regardless of the number, gender and case of the noun.
- Das Spiel ist lustig. (The game is funny.)
- Der Film war interessant. (The film was interesting.)
- Der Vortrag wird spannend. (The lecture will be exciting.)
- Die Blätter bleiben grün. (The leaves stay green.)
Predicative adjectives of the subject
Predicative adjectives can either refer to the subject or the object of a sentence. Especially the verbs werden, sein und bleiben refer to the subject of a sentence.
- Das Haus ist schön. (The house is beautiful.)
- Er sieht nett aus. (He looks friendly.)
- Der Clown ist lustig. (The clown is funny.)
In all sentences, the adjectives are used to describe the subject of the sentence. "Schön" therefore describes the subject "Haus" and "nett" describes the subject "Er".
Predicative adjectives of the object
In contrast to that, the adjectives can also refer to the object of a sentence.
- Sie strichen das Haus blau. (They coloured the house blue.)
- Das Training machte mich besser. (The training made me better.)
- Ich fand das Buch war langweilig. (I think the book was boring.)
In this sentences the predicative adjectives refer to the direct object of the sentence ("Haus" and "Training"), and not to the subject ("Sie" and "Mich").
Adjectives only used as predicative adjectives
Some adjectives can only be used in the predicative way. They can only be linked to the noun via a verb and can't get declined.
- Der Junge geht barfuß. (The boy goes barefoot.) nicht: Der barfuße Junge.
- Das Wetter ist egal. (The weather doesn't matter.) nicht: Das egale Wetter.
- Die Freunde sind pleite. (The friends are bankrupt.) nicht: Die pleiten Freunde.
Attributive adjectives in German
Predicative adjectives do not change their style, regardless of which type of noun they refer to. In contrast to this, attributive adjectives change their endings, depending on the noun they refer to.
Declension of attributive adjectives in German
Because the adjective comes between the article of the noun and the noun itself, you have to decline the adjective referring to the type of noun. Therefore the adjective has to conform with the noun related to number, gender and case. To decline them in the right way, there exist three different types of declencion:
- weak declension (definite article + adjective), e.g. der schöne Hund (the beautiful dog)
- mixed declension (indefinite article + adjective), e.g. ein schöner Hund (a beautiful dog)
- strong declension (no article + adjective), e.g. schöner Hund (beautiful dog)
Keep in mind, that attributive adjectives are the only adjectives that are declined in German language.
Weak declension of attributive adjectives
This declension is used, when the article itself gives all information about number, case and gender of the noun.
| Weak declension | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter | Plural |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | der gute Hund | die gute Katze | das gute Tier | die guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Accusative | den guten Hund | die gute Katze | das gute Tier | die guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Dative | dem guten Hund(e) | der guten Katze | dem guten Tier(e) | den guten Hunden/Katzen/Tieren |
| Genitive | des guten Hundes | der guten Katze | des guten Tier(es) | der guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
If you look closely at it you might realize, that you only have to add an -e or -en.
Mixed declension of attributive adjectives
The mixed declension is used, when an indefinite article (like ein, kein), or a possesive determiner (like mein, dein, ihr etc.) describes the noun.
| Mixed declension | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter | Plural |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | ein guter Hund | eine gute Katze | ein gutes Tier | keine guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Accusative | einen guten Hund | eine gute Katze | ein gutes Tier | keine guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Dative | einem guten Hund(e) | einer guten Katze | einem guten Tier(e) | keinen guten Hunden/Katzen/Tieren |
| Genitive | eines guten Hundes | einer guten Katze | eines guten Tieres | keiner guten Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
Mixed declension table is the same as the weak declension table, except the nominative masculine, the nominative neuter and accusative neuter.
Strong declension of attributive adjectives
The strong declension is used, when there is no preceding article related to the noun, or the preceding article doesn't give enough information about number, gender and case of the noun.
| Strong declension | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter | Plural |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | guter Hund | gute Katze | gutes Tier | gute Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Accusative | guten Hund | gute Katze | gutes Tier | gute Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
| Dative | gutem Hund(e) | guter Katze | gutem Tier(e) | guten Hunden/Katzen/Tieren |
| Genitive | guten Hundes | guter Katze | guten Tieres | guter Hunde/Katzen/Tiere |
Keep in mind that the ending for genitive masculine and neuter is -en.
Adverbial adjectives in German
An Adverb can be a word or a set of words that modifies adjectives, verbs or other adverbs. They can give us information about the how, when, where, how often and to what degree.
- Adverbs of time (This words will give you information about the when)
- e.g. heute, gestern, morgen, sofort, seit
- Adverbs of frequency (This words will give you information about the how often)
- e.g. manchmal, oft, immer, nie, regelmäßig
- Adverbs of quality (This words give you information about the how)
- e.g. gut, schlecht, mittelmäßig
- Adverbs of quantity (This words tell you about the how often as well)
- e.g. viel, wenig, gar nicht
- Adverbs of intensity (This words will give you information about the degree of something happening)
- e.g. sehr, total, überhaupt nicht
In adverbial use, the adjective comes with no ending.
For example:
- Petra kann sehr gut kochen. (Petra can cook very well.)
- Er singt oft. (He is singing frequently.)
- Peter fährt immer schnell. (Peter always drives fast.)
If more than one adverb appears in series, the adverbs are ordered as follows: time, manner, place.
Sie ist jetzt leider draußen. (She is unfortunately outside now.)
Adjectives as nouns in German
Many adjectives can also be used as nouns. They then either stand for people or abstract objects, like things you can't touch. Again, the ending of the noun is then determined by its number, gender and case. If you use adjectives as nouns it's important to write them with a capital letter.
- der/die Kranke (the sick person)
- ein Kranker/eine Kranke (a sick person)
- Kranke (sick persons)
In German, much more adjectival nouns are used than in English.
Gender of adjectival nouns in German
Of course the gender of a noun depends on the adjective that is transformed into a noun. If the noun is describing a special person, then the noun will be masculine or feminine, depending in the person's sex. If the noun doesn't refer to any kind of person, it's usually neuter.
| Adjective | Noun (masculine) | Noun (feminine) |
|---|---|---|
| blond (blond) | der Blonde (male blond person) | die Blonde (female blond person) |
| alt (old) | der Alte (old male person) | die Alte (old female person) |
| verwandt (related) | der Verwandte (male relative) | die Verwandte (female relative) |
| Adjective | Noun (neuter) |
|---|---|
| böse (evil) | das Böse (the evil) |
| ganz (whole) | das Ganze (the whole) |
| wichtig (important) | das Wichtige (that which is important) |
If you want to use an adjective as a noun, just add an -e to the end of the adjective, change its first letter to a capital one, and put an article (der, die, das) in front of it.
Declension of adjectival nouns
The declension of this nouns is quite easy, because they take the exact same declensions as the adjectives would do in the same grammatical context.
It may help if you at first imagine the declension of the adjective, because the adjectival noun has the exact same endings.
| Declension | Masculine | Feminine | Plural |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominativ | der Deutsche (the german male) | die Deutsche (the german female) | die Deutschen |
| Akkusativ | den Deutschen | die Deutsche | die Deutschen |
| Dativ | dem Deutschen | der Deutschen | den Deutschen |
| Genitiv | des Deutschen | der Deutschen | der Deutschen |
Adjectival nouns with ‘etwas’, ‘nichts’, ‘wenig’ and ‘viel’
If the adjectives follow one of the words etwas (something), nichts (nothing), wenig (little) or viel (much), the adjectives are formed as a neuter noun and get capitalized.
Sie kocht etwas Gutes. (She is cooking something good.)
Ich habe nichts Neues gelernt. (I haven't learned anything new.)
Er hat wenig Interessantes erfahren. (He learned little interesting.)
Er macht viel Gutes. (He does much good.)

Hello,
my name is Veronika and I am a student in Florence at the academy of fine arts. I have been in Italy for three years and I really like the Italian language. In school i learned english and during journeys i used to speak a lot of english so i'm also able to teach in english.
I am from Germany so I am a German native speaker. I have already taught German to some of my friends and would love to teach my language to more people as well. At the beginning I would like to do grammar lessons and the most used words to deepen the basic knowledge of the language. Then I will continue to have conversations in German to increase vocabulary and to give confidence in dialogue and in any case in speaking the language in real scenarios. The most important thing by learning a new language is to learn it through hearing and speaking. Being difficult at first to formulate sentences will then become easier and easier and thus you arrive at a fluent and confident way to speak the new language.
For myself I learned Italian three years ago with this method so I also know what it is like to learn a language and I can help you with my teaching to learn German that way.
I can not wait to start!
greetings Veronika

Hello,
my name is Nina, I'm from Austria and I also lived for one year and a half in Canada. I worked there as a German Teacher for adults, so I speak German, English and French.
I also teach English for beginners and advanced beginners.
My teaching methodes are totally based on the level of my student. If somebody is already advanced, I focus on communication and pronunciation. We will arrange on a topic and talk and discuss in the lesson about it.
If my student is a beginner, I'm gonna start with the basics of the German language. (the articles, the verb "to be", the pronouns...)
The learning material is all made by myself, because I'm a German teacher, so that means, I already got lots of working sheets for many topics. I send these to my student via e-mail or put it directly on the coLanguage homepage.
I'm available from Monday to Thursday between 5pm and 08:00 pm. For the weekend it's the best to just send me a request.
Of course is a free trial lesson (it's about 20 minutes) possible.
I'm happy to teach you :-)
See you soon! Nina

My name is Krisztina! I’m a teacher of German and French with the corresponding qualifications. I've grown up in a bilingual family (Hungarian-German), so I speak both languages as a native language. I’ve been teaching for six years, so I’m able to estimate your needs, and to meet them. In my lessons, I recreat real life situations, so that you will be able to adapt yourselves to different circumstances. I’m a patient, positive and creative person, who is looking forward to see you in her lessons. So don’t hesitate to book a lesson with me.

Yulia is a very nice teacher, with lots of patience and great preparation for each lesson. She has tailor-made each lesson for us, according to what topics we would like to focus more. We are very happy to have lessons with her to improve our German skills, especially our speaking skills, in preparation for our coming exams.
