You have the 3 cases (nominativ, dativ, akkusativ) on the left-hand side. Each case is then split into genders: masculine (m), neuter (n), and feminine (f), and plural (pl). [Note: sometimes m / n are combined; sometimes f / pl are combined].

Remember that the genitive case nests inside another case (in these examples, within the nominative). To jog your memory, check out again my example sentence from much earlier (The weight of the stone is too much for me):
As a Romance language, Romanian shares many characteristics with its more distant relatives: Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, etc. However, Romanian has preserved certain features of Latin grammar that have been lost elsewhere. This could be explained by a host of arguments such as: relative isolation in the Balkans, possible pre-existence of identical grammatical structures in its substratum (as opposed to the substrata over which the other Romance languages developed), and existence of similar elements in the neighboring languages. One Latin element that has survived in Romanian while having disappeared from other Romance languages is the morphological case differentiation in nouns. Nevertheless, declensions have been reduced to only three forms (nominative/accusative, genitive/dative, and vocative) from the original six or seven. Another might be the retention of the neuter gender in nouns,[1] although in synchronic terms, Romanian neuter nouns can also be analysed as "ambigeneric", that is as being masculine in the singular and feminine in the plural (see below)[2] and even in diachronic terms certain linguists have argued that this pattern, as well as that of case differentiation, was in a sense "re-invented" rather than a "direct" continuation of the Latin neuter.[3]
Romanian has inherited three cases from Latin: nominative/accusative, dative/genitive and vocative. Morphologically, the nominative and the accusative are identical in nouns; similarly, the genitive and the dative share the same form (these pairs are distinct in the personal pronouns, however). The vocative is less used as it is normally restricted to nouns designating people or things which are commonly addressed directly. Additionally, nouns in the vocative often borrow the nominative form even when there is a distinct vocative form available.
Adjectives in Romanian inflect for number and gender (and for case in the feminine singular genitive/dative). There are adjectives that have distinct forms for all combinations, some that don't distinguish between gender only in the plural, others that don't distinguish gender, and a few that don't distinguish either gender or number.
The above reflexive pronouns are in the accusative and dative cases, and in both stressed / unstressed forms. As is made clear, the reflexive pronouns are identical to the personal pronouns, with the exception of the 3rd person, which has entirely new forms. The genitival forms of the reflexive pronouns are the same for the 1st and 2nd persons, but also differ in the 3rd person singular, which is al său. This is a direct continuation of Latin usage; Latin suus was used only when the possessor was the subject of the sentence.
The polite pronouns all have the same forms in all cases (the only exception being dumneata, with the genitive/dative form of dumitale), and they exist only in the second and third person, due to their not being used to refer to oneself:
One of the most feared topics in German grammar is the Adjektivdeklination. You need to change not only articles, but also adjective endings according to which gender (masculine, femininem neutral) and which case (nominative, accusative, dative, genitive) it is used in. Lastly, it also depends on the number (singular vs. plural). Luckily, all genders are the same in the plural, which gives us 4 categories (masculine, feminine, neutral and the plural).
Laura lives in Austria, and while it is a beautiful place, it does get very cold during the winter. She really wants to get some winter sun this year, and wants to talk about a vacation with her dad. He believes strongly that everyone should speak using correct grammar at all times. She will need to use genitive case prepositions correctly and not just replace them with the dative, as is becoming more common.
The dative, accusative and genitive cases all have prepositions that belong to their case. This means that when one of these prepositions is used in a sentence, the noun or pronoun following the preposition has to take on the form of the correct case. This correct form is represented in the form of the definite or indefinite article, personal or possessive pronouns.
In recent years in spoken German many people have begun to use many of the genitive prepositions with the dative case. While this may be acceptable in spoken colloquial German, it is technically grammatically incorrect. Try your best to remember which prepositions belong to which case.
A preposition is a word that expresses how a noun or pronoun relates to another word or element in the clause. In German, the dative, accusative and genitive cases all have prepositions that belong to their case. The genitive ones are:
In my master's thesis, I investigate the German case system in the government of secondary prepositions. In contemporary speech, secondary prepositions mainly govern the genitive or dative, without any semantic difference. In diachronic progression, it can often be observed that the case government shifts from genitive to dative and vice versa. Currently, some secondary prepositions are subject to fluctuations in their case government, which can lead to uncertainty as to which case is considered correct from a normative perspective. In the academic literature, various reasons are given for these fluctuations, such as the differentiation of a preposition from its donor lexeme or the generally higher prestige of the genitive.In order to find out more about fluctuations in the case government of secondary prepositions, I conducted an extensive corpus analysis of the contemporary language. In the process, six exemplary prepositions - three of which with original genitive government (laut, zuzüglich, abzüglich) and three with original dative government (entgegen, entlang, binnen) - were examined in corpora of the following text types: Newspaper texts (regional and national), fiction and light literature, political speeches, legal texts and discussions by Wikipedia contributors. In addition, these prepositions were examined in two historical corpora from the 17th to the 20th century. The analyses showed, firstly, that the genitive is better able to establish itself as a new case and also survives longer than the dative. Secondly, it could be shown that more norm-oriented text types such as legal texts tend to have a conservative case government, whereas colloquial texts such as Wikipedia discussions have a more progressive trend. And thirdly, it was noticeable that not only genitive and dative are involved in the case government of the prepositions studied: The other two cases, accusative and nominative, also occur in some instances. However, a much larger part of the samples does not show any discernible case. In addition, the prepositions abzüglich, zuzüglich and entlang are sometimes connected with primary prepositions (e.g. zuzüglich zu, entlang an). Thus, the phenomenon of prepositional case government is very complex; it goes far beyond the depiction in grammars and dictionaries, both in older New High German and in the contemporary speech. 2ff7e9595c
