Keywords
Sound-symbol correspondence - (SSC) relationship between letters and their sounds
Wer, wen, wem - question word meaning 'who' or 'whom' which changes according to case
Nominative - case used for the subject or 'doer' of the action of a verb in a sentence
Accusative - case used for the direct object in a sentence, after most verbs and some prepositions
Dative - case used for the indirect object in a sentence and after a dative verb or preposition
Common misconception
The question word 'wer' is used whenever we want to say 'who'.
'Wer' means 'who' in the nominative case only. It changes to 'wen' in accusative and 'wem' in the dative case. In English, 'wen' and 'wem' also mean 'whom', although this word is used less frequently.
