In German, the word for ‘who’ is ‘wer’.
This word is used in various contexts, similar to its English counterpart. For instance, if you want to ask someone about the identity of a person, you can say, ‘Wer ist das?’ which translates to ‘Who is that?’
It’s important to note that ‘wer’ is mainly used as a subject in a sentence. If you’re looking to use a different form, such as in the accusative case, it remains ‘wen’, as in ‘Wen siehst du?’ meaning ‘Whom do you see?’.
Understanding these distinctions can help you improve your German language skills and communicate more effectively.
