Ideal reference resource for students focusing on high-frequency German prepositions. I’ve found that the lists are a great learning support resource, and they’re really popular with students too. They work well when students keep them carefully in learning files or folders for current and future reference. They also work well printed double-sided and laminated for small-group work in class.

This list is a collection of 25 high-frequency common German prepositions that students will meet across the advanced beginner German to advanced intermediate German stages of their learning program, and useful for students entering advanced German as a vocabulary audit and enrichment.

Each preposition notes which case is it governed by: accusative; accusative or dative; dative; genitive. It’s an important step in language learning is to ensure that students quickly develop a useful vocabulary bank, are able to recognize German prepositions, and are confident with the meaning of those words in their first / home language, so that they can produce more detailed and descriptive language and more complex sentences and texts as soon as possible.

Students shouldn’t take on the task of learning all the prepositions at once though, as this generally has limited success in the context of embedding vocabulary into long-term memory. The list is conceptualized as a reference resource that students can use to audit their developing German vocabulary, and it is definitely the case that frequent and regular use in real-world practical contexts is far more successful at embedding vocabulary into longer-term memory.

The list is a great time-saver for teachers too - if you’re preparing resources focusing on prepositions in German for your students, the list is a good starting point.

There are two alphabetical lists - one German-English, and one English-German, as I’ve found that most language students prefer to have both as a reference resource. There are two backgrounds to choose from - German flag, which I generally use for German grammar display, and plain.
