Everyday expressions with a pronunciation column — the shape NoteMentor gives vocabulary it finds in your own pages.

Summary

Your notes handle the nominative and accusative confidently. The dative appears in the example sentences but the article table for it is incomplete — three cells are blank in your photo, which is likely why the exercises feel inconsistent.

The four cases

Nominative and accusative are fully tabulated; dative is partially filled and genitive is missing.

Verb-second word order

Shown correctly throughout your example sentences, though never stated as a rule.
