解説 dieses in your Level:

At the A1 level, 'dieses' is introduced as a demonstrative pronoun and determiner used specifically with neuter nouns. Learners are taught that German has three genders, and 'dieses' is the form used for 'this' when the noun is neuter (e.g., das Buch, das Auto, das Kind). The primary focus is on the nominative and accusative cases, where the form 'dieses' remains the same. Students learn to use it for pointing at objects in the immediate vicinity ('Dieses Buch hier') or for basic time expressions like 'dieses Jahr' (this year). It is a foundational word for identifying objects and making simple choices during shopping or ordering food. Exercises at this level usually involve matching 'dieses' with the correct neuter noun and distinguishing it from 'dieser' (masculine) and 'diese' (feminine).

At the A2 level, learners expand their use of 'dieses' to include more varied contexts and slightly more complex sentence structures. They begin to use it as a standalone pronoun more frequently ('Welches Auto möchtest du? Dieses.'). The focus also shifts to correctly declining 'dieses' in the dative case ('in diesem Haus'), although 'dieses' itself remains the focal point for nominative and accusative contexts. Learners are encouraged to use 'dieses' to create more specific and precise sentences than they did at A1, moving away from the more general 'das'. They also encounter 'dieses' in common social situations, such as talking about 'dieses Wochenende' (this weekend) or 'dieses Mal' (this time), and start to recognize its role in connecting sentences by referring back to previously mentioned neuter nouns.

At the B1 level, 'dieses' is used to refer to abstract concepts and complex ideas, not just physical objects. For example, a student might discuss 'dieses Problem' (this problem) or 'dieses Thema' (this topic) in the context of a debate or an essay. The distinction between 'dieses' and 'das' becomes more stylistic; B1 learners are expected to use 'dieses' to provide emphasis or to clarify which specific item they are discussing in a more professional or academic setting. They also learn about the genitive form 'dieses' (e.g., 'während dieses Jahres'), which is common in formal writing. The use of 'dieses' as a cohesive device in texts becomes more prominent, helping the learner to structure their arguments by pointing back to specific neuter subjects mentioned earlier.

At the B2 level, the use of 'dieses' becomes more nuanced. Learners are expected to handle the word in all four cases with ease and to understand the subtle difference between 'dieses' and 'dies' (the shortened, often more abstract form). They use 'dieses' in formal reports, presentations, and complex discussions to maintain clarity. For instance, in a business presentation, one might say 'Dieses Ergebnis zeigt uns...' (This result shows us...). The B2 learner also understands the contrast between 'dieses' and 'jenes' (that), even though 'jenes' is less common, using it correctly in written comparisons. The focus is on precision, ensuring that 'dieses' always agrees perfectly with its noun in gender, number, and case, even in long, complex sentences with multiple clauses.

At the C1 level, 'dieses' is used with stylistic sophistication. The learner understands how to use it to create rhythmic and rhetorical effects in writing and speaking. They can distinguish between the demonstrative 'dieses' and the relative uses of similar-sounding words. C1 learners also recognize 'dieses' in archaic or literary texts where it might be used in ways that differ slightly from modern spoken German. They use 'dieses' to refer to highly specific nuances within an argument, often in academic writing to point toward a specific 'Phänomen' (phenomenon) or 'Gut' (good/commodity). The mastery of 'dieses' at this level involves not just grammatical correctness, but the ability to use it to guide the reader's or listener's attention with surgical precision through complex logical structures.

At the C2 level, the use of 'dieses' is indistinguishable from that of a highly educated native speaker. The learner can use 'dieses' in any register, from the most casual slang to the most formal legal or philosophical discourse. They are aware of the historical development of the word and can appreciate its use in classical German literature (e.g., Goethe or Schiller). At this level, 'dieses' is used to navigate the most subtle distinctions in meaning, often in contexts where it acts as a precise anchor for a complex web of references. The C2 speaker can also play with the word, using it ironically or for specific emphasis in a way that shows a deep cultural and linguistic immersion. They have a complete command of all its declensions and its role as both a determiner and a pronoun in all possible syntactic configurations.

dieses 30秒で

Dieses is the neuter singular form of 'this' in German, used specifically with neuter nouns in the nominative and accusative cases.
It acts as a demonstrative, allowing speakers to point out specific objects like 'dieses Auto' (this car) or 'dieses Buch' (this book).
Beyond physical objects, it is used for time expressions like 'dieses Jahr' (this year) and abstract concepts like 'dieses Problem'.
It differs from 'dieser' (masculine) and 'diese' (feminine/plural) and is more specific and emphatic than the general article 'das'.

The German word dieses is a demonstrative determiner and pronoun, specifically the neuter singular form of dieser. In English, it most closely translates to 'this' or 'this one' when referring to a neuter noun. Understanding dieses is fundamental for A1 learners because it allows you to point out specific objects in your immediate environment. While the word das is often used as a general 'that' or 'this', dieses is more precise, emphasizing the specific item being discussed among others. It is used in both the nominative case (as the subject) and the accusative case (as the direct object) for neuter nouns. For example, since 'Buch' (book) is neuter (das Buch), you would say dieses Buch to mean 'this book'.

Grammatical Role: Demonstrative determiner used with neuter nouns in the nominative and accusative cases.

Ich möchte dieses Auto kaufen.

Beyond physical objects, dieses is used for temporal expressions like dieses Jahr (this year) or dieses Mal (this time). Because 'Jahr' and 'Mal' are neuter, they require this specific ending. In more advanced German, dieses can function as a pronoun on its own, standing in for a previously mentioned neuter noun. For instance, 'Welches Kleid gefällt dir? Dieses.' (Which dress do you like? This one.). This versatility makes it a cornerstone of demonstrative communication. Structurally, dieses follows the 'der-die-das' pattern, meaning it takes the same endings as the definite article. Since the definite article for neuter nominative/accusative is das, the demonstrative becomes dies-es. This logic helps learners predict the forms for masculine (dieser) and feminine (diese) nouns as well. In literary contexts, you might see dieses used to introduce a concept or a quote, acting as a bridge between the speaker's current thought and a specific reference. It creates a proximal relationship between the speaker and the object, contrasting with jenes (that), which is rarely used in modern spoken German.

Contextual Usage: Used when pointing to a neuter object nearby or referring to a neuter concept just mentioned in a conversation.

Kennst du dieses Lied?

In summary, dieses is the tool for being specific about 'this' neuter thing right here.

Using dieses correctly requires knowledge of German noun genders and cases. Since dieses is strictly neuter, it must precede a neuter noun or replace one. In the Nominative case (subject), it looks like this: Dieses Haus ist alt. (This house is old.). Here, 'Haus' is the subject. In the Accusative case (direct object), the form remains dieses: Ich sehe dieses Haus. (I see this house.). This consistency between nominative and accusative is a helpful feature of neuter and feminine declensions in German.

Nominative Example: Dieses Kind spielt im Garten.
Accusative Example: Wir besuchen dieses Museum morgen.

When using dieses in the Genitive case, it changes to dieses or dieser depending on the noun, but the standard demonstrative genitive for neuter is dieses (though dieses Hauses adds an -es to the noun). In the Dative case, it becomes diesem (e.g., In diesem Zimmer ist es warm). However, at the A1 level, focusing on the nominative and accusative 'dieses' is the priority.

Magst du dieses Bild an der Wand?

Another important usage is the shortened form dies. In formal writing or when referring to a general 'this' that hasn't been assigned a gender yet (like an abstract idea), Germans often use dies instead of dieses. For example, 'Dies ist wichtig' (This is important). However, when a neuter noun follows, dieses is mandatory. You cannot say 'dies Haus'; it must be 'dieses Haus'. When comparing two things, dieses is often paired with jenes (that one) or simply das andere (the other one). 'Ich nehme dieses Buch, nicht das andere.' (I'll take this book, not the other one.). This helps in shopping or ordering situations. In spoken German, people often add 'hier' to emphasize the proximity: Dieses Buch hier (This book here). This mirrors the English 'this here' but is much more common and accepted in standard German speech.

Common Collocations: dieses Jahr, dieses Mal, dieses Wochenende, dieses Problem.

Dieses Wochenende habe ich Zeit.

Understanding the difference between dieses and the article das is key. While Das Buch ist gut means 'The book is good', Dieses Buch ist gut specifically means 'THIS book (right here) is good'. It carries more demonstrative force. If you are pointing at a menu, you would say 'Ich möchte dieses Gericht' (I would like this dish).

You will hear dieses in almost every daily interaction in Germany. At a bakery, a customer might point to a specific pastry and say, 'Ich hätte gern dieses Stück dort' (I would like this piece there). In a professional setting, a colleague might refer to a specific project: 'Dieses Projekt ist sehr wichtig für uns' (This project is very important for us). Because German nouns are so strictly gendered, the auditory cue of the '-es' ending immediately tells the listener that a neuter noun is coming up or being referred to.

Hörst du dieses Geräusch?

In media, news anchors often use dieses to refer to a specific event mentioned in the previous sentence. 'Die Regierung plant neue Steuern. Dieses Vorhaben wird kritisiert.' (The government is planning new taxes. This undertaking is being criticized.). Here, 'Vorhaben' (undertaking/plan) is neuter. In casual conversation, however, you might notice that Germans often shorten dieses to dies or even just use das. For example, instead of 'Dieses Buch ist toll', they might say 'Das Buch hier ist toll'. However, dieses remains the standard for clear, unambiguous identification. You will also find dieses in many idiomatic time expressions. In a train station, you might hear announcements like 'Der Zug hat dieses Mal keine Verspätung' (The train has no delay this time). In schools, teachers often say, 'Dieses Thema behandeln wir morgen' (We will cover this topic tomorrow).

Common Scenarios: Shopping (pointing at items), Work (referring to documents/projects), Travel (referring to tickets/times), and Socializing (referring to photos/stories).

Schau dir dieses Foto an!

In literature and high-level journalism, dieses is used to create a sense of immediacy and focus. It demands the reader's attention to the specific object or idea being presented. In advertisements, you'll see slogans like 'Kaufen Sie dieses Produkt' (Buy this product). The word acts as a linguistic finger, pointing directly at the subject. Even in pop music, lyrics often use dieses to describe a specific feeling or moment: 'Dieses Gefühl in meinem Bauch' (This feeling in my stomach). Neuter nouns are very common in German, so the frequency of dieses is high.

The most frequent mistake English speakers make with dieses is using it for the wrong gender. Since English only has 'this', learners often forget that German requires dieser for masculine and diese for feminine/plural. For example, saying dieses Mann instead of dieser Mann is a classic error. Another mistake is confusing dieses with the pronoun dies. While dies can stand alone to mean 'this' in an abstract sense, dieses is usually required when the neuter noun is explicitly stated or when referring back to a specific neuter noun.

Gender Mismatch: Incorrect: Dieses Tisch (Tisch is masculine). Correct: Dieser Tisch.
Plural Confusion: Incorrect: Dieses Kinder (Kinder is plural). Correct: Diese Kinder.

Falsch: Dieses Frau ist nett. (Correct: Diese Frau...)

Another subtle mistake is overusing dieses when a simple das would suffice. In English, we use 'this' very frequently. In German, das is much more versatile. If you are just talking about something generally, das is often better. Use dieses when you want to be emphatic or specific. Also, be careful with the declension in different cases. While dieses is correct for Nominative and Accusative, it changes to diesem in the Dative. Saying 'Ich wohne in dieses Haus' is incorrect; it should be 'Ich wohne in diesem Haus' because the preposition 'in' (when describing location) requires the dative case. Finally, avoid the 'Denglish' mistake of saying 'dieses einer' for 'this one'. In German, you just say dieses or dieses hier. The word 'einer' is not used as a filler like 'one' is in English. For example, if someone asks 'Which book?', you answer 'Dieses!', not 'Dieses eins'.

To truly master dieses, you must understand its neighbors in the German language. The most obvious alternatives are the other forms of the demonstrative: dieser (masculine) and diese (feminine/plural). Beyond that, the word das is the most common substitute.

dieses vs. das: 'Dieses' is specific and emphatic (this one here). 'Das' is more general and can mean either 'this' or 'that'.
dieses vs. jenes: 'Dieses' refers to something close (this). 'Jenes' refers to something further away (that). Note: 'Jenes' is very formal and rarely used in speech.

Ich mag dieses Kleid, aber nicht jenes.

Another alternative is solches (such a). While dieses Buch means 'this specific book', ein solches Buch means 'a book such as this' or 'this kind of book'. This is useful when you are talking about types of things rather than specific objects. In very informal speech, you might hear das hier or das da. Das hier is a direct synonym for dieses when pointing at something neuter. For instance, 'Nimm das hier!' (Take this one!). There is also the word folgendes (the following). If you are about to list things or describe a neuter concept, you might say, 'Folgendes Problem ist aufgetreten...' (The following problem occurred...). This is a common alternative in academic or business contexts.

welches: The interrogative version: 'Welches Buch?' (Which book?) - Answer: 'Dieses Buch!' (This book!).

Welches Kind? Dieses Kind!

In summary, while dieses is the primary word for 'this' (neuter), you can use das for simplicity, jenes for contrast, and solches for categories. Mastering these distinctions will make your German much more natural and expressive.

よくある間違い

Using 'dieses' for masculine nouns. → Dieser Tisch.
Tisch is masculine, so 'dieses' is incorrect. You must use 'dieser'.
Using 'dieses' for plural nouns. → Diese Bücher.
Plural always takes 'diese', regardless of gender. 'Dieses' is only for singular neuter.
Saying 'dieses einer' for 'this one'. → Dieses hier.
In German, you don't use 'einer' as a filler like 'one' in English. Just say 'dieses' or 'dieses hier'.
Using 'dieses' in the dative case. → In diesem Haus.
Prepositions like 'in' (location) require the dative case, so 'dieses' must change to 'diesem'.
Overusing 'dieses' when 'das' is more natural. → Das ist mein Buch.
While 'Dieses ist mein Buch' is grammatically okay, 'Das ist...' is much more common for general identification.

ヒント

The Neuter Rule

Always pair 'dieses' with 'das' nouns. If you've learned 'das Auto', then it's 'dieses Auto'.

Emphasis

To sound like a native, put a slight stress on the 'DI-' to show you are being specific.

The Ending Matters

Train your ear to catch the '-es' at the end; it's a vital clue for the noun's gender.

Clarity in Essays

Use 'dieses' to refer back to a neuter concept you just explained to keep your writing cohesive.

Time Phrases

Memorize 'dieses Jahr' and 'dieses Wochenende' as fixed blocks; they are used constantly.

Plural Trap

Never use 'dieses' for plurals. It's always 'diese', even if the singular was neuter.

Precision

Germans appreciate linguistic precision. Using 'dieses' correctly shows you respect the language rules.

Sticky Notes

Put sticky notes on neuter objects in your house with 'dieses [Noun]' written on them.

The Long IE

Make sure you don't say 'disses'. It must be a long 'dee-zes'.

Case Check

On exams, double-check if the preposition before 'dieses' requires the dative case (making it 'diesem').

暗記しよう

記憶術

Think of 'Dieses' as 'DI-SES'. Imagine two 'S' sounds pointing at a 'SES'ame bun (neuter, das Brötchen).

チャレンジ

Try to find five neuter objects in your room and point to each one while saying 'Dieses [Object]' out loud.

語源

Derived from the Old High German 'dese', which was a combination of the definite article and a deictic particle. It has been used to indicate proximity for over a millennium.

元の意味： This one here; that which is present.

Germanic, related to the English 'this'.

文化的な背景

There are no major sensitivities, but ensure you use 'dieses Mädchen' correctly; even though it refers to a girl, the word 'Mädchen' is grammatically neuter.

English speakers often struggle because they only have one word ('this') for all genders and cases. The concept of 'dieses' specifically for neuter nouns is a new mental hurdle.

Goethe's 'Faust': Uses 'dieses' in various philosophical contemplations. The German Bible (Luther): Frequently uses 'dieses' to point to specific parables or objects. Modern German Pop Songs: Often use 'dieses Gefühl' to describe love or longing.
