"My friends are old."

Translation: Meine Freunde sind alt.

[Pouriya0]

If freunde is plural of freund and freundinnen plural of freundin, then what is freunden??

[RedAngel666]

Hi Pouriya,

It's the dativ flexion. "Ich gebe es meinen Freunden."

regards Angel

[Pouriya0]

Thanks

[RedAngel666]

you're welcome

I don't get it:(

[Carla744071]

So these aren't boyfriends? A girl can't have a couple of sugar daddies?

[Brigitta898819]

Can't girls have friends that are males but not a boyfriend or sugar dady?

[tatzels]

Just to be sure, this can't be used to mean they are long-time friends, right? "Alt" is just in reference to the age of the friends?

[rainbowpuke]

Also want to know.

[Jackson962413]

I think it would be expressed differently.
Ich habe alte freunde.
But not entirely sure.

[davidayala122135]

Ja, und nein... the thing, I believe (since haven't particullarly got there), is that adjectives can conjugate with sustantives so "wir sind alt Freunde" wouldnt be right as "wir sind alte Freunde" would.

the early advise had 'friends' as freundinnen!!!!!!!!!

[nayansen1]

Even though i didnt ask i had the same question thanks a ton angel

[Christian343380]

Why meine and not mein

[requin230]

because it is plural "die Freunde".

[deactivated user]

Would I use Freunde when talking about a mix of friends (both male and female)? Or would I have to say Freunde und Freundinnen every time I wanted to mention them?

[vaishnavij660501]

It is difficult for me
