Explanation
euer means your for several people you address informally as ihr. It is the counterpart of dein.
The ending follows the OWNED noun, not the owners. A special spelling rule applies: when an ending is added, euer drops the second e and becomes eur-.
The forms (nominative):
- masculine: euer - euer Garten (your garden)
- neuter: euer - euer Haus (your house)
- feminine: eure - eure Tasche (your bag)
- : eure - eure Kinder (your children)
Examples:
- Euer Garten ist schön. - Your garden is beautiful.
- Eure Wohnung ist groß. - Your flat is big.
- Eure Freunde sind nett. - Your friends are nice.
Common mistakes:
- Writing euere instead of eure - the e before the ending drops.
- masculine adds -en (and still drops the e): Wir sehen euren Garten (We see your garden).
