Thanks :)  The 4 cases can be diffiult for some languages, but they are fairly easy once you learn them. Using them correctly can be a bit more of a challenge for someone who is new to the German language, but I can pretty much sum it up like this:

Nomative is who or what is doing something. Genitive is a bit more tricky, but is mainly used for words like Insted of. Dative is who/whom . And accusative is who is effected by the verb.

It may not make tons of sense, but as a native German, the cases are just something you get use to using :)
