Fahrern

Fahrern is the dative plural form of the German noun Fahrer, meaning drivers. It is not a separate lexical entry or a concept by itself in standard German; its meaning comes from the base word Fahrer, which refers to a person who operates a vehicle or directs a vehicle’s movement. The form Fahrern appears only as a grammatical inflection used in contexts that require the dative case.

In practice, Fahrern occurs in phrases without an article or with dative markers. Examples include mit Fahrern (with drivers), bei Fahrern (with/near the drivers), or von Fahrern (from the drivers). When a definite article is used, the form becomes den Fahrern (e.g., ich spreche mit den Fahrern). The bare Fahrern typically appears after prepositions that govern the dative plural and does not carry independent meaning beyond that function.

Usage notes and related forms:

- Nominative plural: Fahrer (the drivers)

- Accusative plural: Fahrer (the drivers)

- Genitive plural: Fahrer (the drivers)

- Singular forms are Fahrer (nominative/accusative) and des Fahrers (genitive); singular dative is dem Fahrer.

Because Fahrern is an inflected form, care should be taken not to treat it as a stand-alone term or name. It is primarily a grammatical variant used to indicate “to/with/among the drivers” in sentences that require the dative plural.
