unserem

This is the 742nd most frequent German word.


unserem

The German word "unserem" means "our" in the dative case.


Here, "unserem" is the dative form of the possessive "unser" (our), and it aligns with the masculine "nächsten" (next, as in neighbor), signifying possession or association in a dative context.

Wir sollten unser Herz für unseren nächsten öffnen.

We should open our heart to our neighbor.


"Unserem" is used here in the dative case because of the preposition "mit" (with), which requires a dative noun. It modifies "Wissen" (knowledge).

Mit unserem Wissen können wir anderen helfen.

With our knowledge, we can help others.


In this example, "unserem" is used because the preposition "in" (in) in this context governs the dative case, specifying possession of "Garten" (garden).

Wir verbringen viel Zeit in unserem Garten.

We spend a lot of time in our garden.
