kuriem

This is the 67th most frequent Latvian word.


kuriem

"Which" (dative plural form).


In this sentence, 'kuriem' is used as a relative pronoun referring to plural masculine noun 'draugi' (friends) in its dative form, indicating the object of trust.

Tie ir draugi, kuriem es uzticos.

These are the friends I trust.


Here, 'kuriem' functions as a relative pronoun replacing 'cilvēkiem' (to the people) in its dative form, specifying the action performed for those people.

Es piezvanīju cilvēkiem, kuriem biju apsolījis palīdzību.

I called the people to whom I had promised help.


In this example, 'kuriem' once again serves as a relative pronoun in the dative form, corresponding to 'cilvēkiem' (to people), qualifying them by their characteristics.

Saka, ka ir cilvēki, kuriem nekas nav par grūtu.

It is said that there are people for whom nothing is too difficult.
