What you'll practice: cases, articles, verbs and vocabulary

Twelve areas to drill, each with its own exercises and games. The long explanations live in the grammar guides. This part is just practice.

Cases (Fälle)

You get a sentence with a gap: Ich gebe ___ Kind den Ball. Choose dem or den. All four cases show up this way, inside sentences you would actually say.

Open practice

Gender (Der/Die/Das)

Der, die or das, one noun at a time. There is also a lookup dictionary with over a thousand nouns when you just need to check one.

Open practice

Adjectives

Strong, weak and mixed endings. Ein neuer Tisch but der neue Tisch, and that difference is what you drill here.

Open practice

Verb Conjugation

Regular and irregular verbs across the tenses. There is a conjugator tool too, for when you only need the table for one verb.

Open practice

Prepositions

Which preposition takes which case. Wechselpräpositionen are the awkward ones: in das or in dem, depending on whether you are moving.

Open practice

Pronouns

Pronouns in every case, including the reflexive and relative ones. Mir or mich, ihm or ihn.

Open practice

Possessives

Mein, dein, sein, ihr, and the endings they pick up in each case. Meinem Bruder takes some getting used to.

Open practice

Vocabulary

Themed decks with audio on every card, and a few different ways to work through each one.

Open practice

Phrases & Idioms

Redewendungen and the phrases that do not translate word for word. Each one comes with a short grammar note.

Open practice

Grammar Games

Hangman, Falling Words, Sentence Scramble and a grammar RPG. Same grammar, different pressure.

Open practice

Dialogues

Two-speaker conversations at the doctor or the bakery. Listen, follow the highlighted line, then answer questions on what you heard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is KasusKnacker really free?

Yes. 50 exercises a day, free forever, and no ads anywhere in the app. Premium removes the daily cap and unlocks the reference lessons. That is the whole difference.

Can KasusKnacker correct my own German texts?

Yes. Schreibcheck corrects the text you paste and explains every change, with a link to the matching grammar lesson. Free accounts get one check a day, Premium up to 30.

What is the difference between Nominativ and Akkusativ?

Nominativ marks the subject and Akkusativ marks the direct object. Der Mann sees something; you see den Mann. Only masculine nouns change their article, which is why the other genders feel easy until Dativ turns up.

What are Wechselpräpositionen?

Nine prepositions that take either Akkusativ or Dativ depending on meaning. Movement takes Akkusativ, position takes Dativ: ich gehe in die Küche versus ich bin in der Küche.

Is this a full Goethe or telc exam?

No. The exam section drills the grammar those exams test, from A1 to C1, and finishes with a timed readiness check. It is not a mock exam, and we are not affiliated with Goethe, telc, or any other exam provider.

Is the audio real speech or my phone's voice?

Flashcards, dialogues and stories play audio files we generate ahead of time, so the pronunciation stays consistent. Your device's own voice only steps in when a word has no file yet.

Do the 50 daily exercises reset per device?

No. The count belongs to your account, so every device shares the same 50. It resets at midnight UTC.

What levels does it cover?

A1 through C2. Filter to a single level, or mix them.
