Location: im Zentrum & in der Nähe
Use these ready-made phrases to say where things are:
- im Zentrum — in the center
- in der Nähe — nearby
- in der Nähe vom Bahnhof — near the station
- gleich um die Ecke — just around the corner
- direkt am Bahnhof — right by the station
Learn them as whole phrases for now. Most contain the dative, but um die Ecke contains the accusative. You will learn more about these prepositions later.
Tip
These are fixed chunks. Say them exactly like this and they're always right — the article system behind them comes in later units.
