Usage notes[]
im only occurs in the dative case.
Declension[]
Since the form im is used only in the dative case and only with a masculine or neuter noun, adjectives that follow it are declined with -en, and the following noun is declined in the dative case.
The preposition in can be used with both accusative and dative objects, but it only contracts with dem as im and with das as ins. Thus, the combination of in with the definite article has the following forms:
masculine | neuter | feminine | plural | |
---|---|---|---|---|
accusative | in den | ins | in die | in die |
dative | im | im | in der | in den |
