Hi everyone,

sorry if this is a basic question but I am having problems getting my head about sentence structure.

My question is based on the structure of this question: Kannst du mir ein Buch geben?

What rule is that requires that du and mir be next to each other, instead of kannst du ein Buch mir geben?

thanks.

Hi everyone,

I am a 43 year old Canadian trying to learn German. A very interesting language, with many mysteries that I have yet to solve. With time I hope all shall be revealed.
