Pronoun 'euch' (you all, accusative)

'euch' is the accusative form of 'ihr' - the informal you all (several people) when they are the direct object.

A handy fact: 'euch' is the same in the accusative and the dative. One form covers both the direct object (Ich sehe euch) and the indirect object (Ich danke euch).

When you use it:

• after accusative verbs: sehen, besuchen, einladen, kennen (for example Ich sehe euch - I see you)
• after accusative prepositions: für, ohne, gegen, um (for example für euch - for you all)

Use euch only with several people you address informally (as ihr). For a formal addressee use Sie.

Contrast:

• Ihr seid laut. (subject - nominative)
• Ich sehe euch. (object - accusative)

Examples:

• Ich sehe euch später. - I'll see you later.
• Das Geschenk ist für euch. - The present is for you all.

Common mistakes: Do not use ihr as the object (not Ich sehe ihr). Use euch.
