Präpositionaldativ
Präpositionaldativ is a term from German grammar describing a prepositional object in the dative case. It occurs when a noun or pronoun, introduced by a preposition, functions as the object of a verb or expression and is in the dative. This construction is common with verbs and fixed phrases that require a prepositional object in the dative, rather than a bare dative object.
Typical prepositions that govern the dative include aus, außer, bei, mit, nach, seit, von, zu, gegenüber, and
In many cases the Präpositionaldativ is obligatory because the verb or expression selects a prepositional object
