Noun
[edit]Herz n (weak, genitive Herzens or (very rare) Herzes, plural Herzen, diminutive Herzchen n or Herzlein n or ((also) Ruhrpöttisch) Herzken n)
Usage notes
[edit]- Herz has irregular singular declension and is the only noun of its kind.
- The genitive singular takes the ending -ens: des Herzens. The form des Herzes is very rare and generally considered nonstandard.
- The dative singular traditionally takes -en: dem Herzen. This form is still the only accepted standard form in many—more or less fixed—expressions, such as im Herzen, von Herzen, zu Herzen, Operation am offenen Herzen (“open-heart surgery”), mit halbem Herzen (“half-heartedly”), and others.
- Only the bare form dem Herz is common when referring to a card suit, as a term of endearment, and in the phrase mit Herz (“good-hearted”).
- Otherwise, the forms dem Herzen and dem Herz are both acceptable. The latter is predominant in speech, while the former remains the more established form in writing.
