"Das Restaurant ist um die Ecke."

Translation: The restaurant is around the corner.

[ayhanalpar]

why not at the corner?

[person243]

That would be "an der Ecke". This phrase means, that the restaurant is quite close or that there is just one corner between here and there. It does not have to be at a corner it can also be in the middle of the street, if that is not so far away.

I hope I could be of help.

"Around the corner" Means it is not far from here.
Example: The store isn't far from here, it's just around the corner.

[K.Odam]

Not really: it is the word "just" that would say that it is nearby. (It could be around the corner and half-way down the street.)

Sometimes it does work even with misspelling but there are some misspellings it doesnt forgive,a computer simply cant tell between a misspelling and an actual wrong answer

[LafoonXIII]

Restaurant is the English spelling. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/restaurant

Why does google translate put a gleich thing in the sentence. "Das Restaurant ist gleich um die Ecke."

[az_p]

That's like "just around the corner".

[TommyKeeler]

Why does the corner not take the dative to become der Ecke? I thought sentences that give a static position would take the dative case?

[ToWdWorD]

The preposition "um" is in german bound with accusative case, i think...

[GehrigHuff]

Is it also correct to use "um die Ecke" for something that is going to happen soon? e.g. "Der Frühling ist um die Ecke."

[Kati673185]

the restaurant is at the corner - is correct -

um die Ecket - is not - around the corner
