What is the difference between kérek szépen and szeretnek kerni?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Findil

"Kérek szépen" literally translates to "I ask (for something) nicely", while "szeretnék kérni" is "I would like to ask (for something)". Both are polite, especially the latter, and you're free to use any of the two in a conversation.

Is kérni simply a different conjugation of kérek


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/mizinamo

Yes; kérni is the infinitive and kérek is the form for "I".

Why is my answer "Sört kérek" not correct? Is that not polite enough maybe?

What does "acc." mean? Bear is translated as "Sör" or "Sört (acc.)"


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/mizinamo

Short for "accusative case", the grammatical case used for a direct object.

So the "acc." is a hint that sört is the accusative form of that noun.

What is the difference between sör and sört ?

sört is the accusative case form of sör.

Like the difference between "him" and "he".

Should "Kívánok egy sört" be correct? What is the difference between "kívánok" and "kérek"?

Why can't you say egy sört kérek?
