[Duomail]

"Du magst den Apfel" does it really mean "you like the apple" as well as "you like that apple"?

[Glutexo]

Yes.

[Rajeew]

so "den" means both "the" and "that" ?

[CradleOfSong]

Yes, when you have something like:
Du magst den Apfel, den ich dir geschenkt habe.
You like the apple, that I have give you as a gift.

[fariman2]

Why (den) or ein

[vankumar17]

"Du magst den Apfel" vs "Du mogt(umlaut) den Apfel"
Don't both translate to You like the apple?

[TrueCB]

Mo:gt is for ihr, magst is for du. It is just the way conjugation works

[vankumar17]

Danke

[Starwolf7]

Is mögen only used for plural?
