Verbs with dative object pronoun

When do you use "mir" (dative) and when "mich" (accusative) ?

That depends on the main verb of the sentence.

Almost all German verbs prefer the accusative forms (mich), but there are some which prefer the dative forms (mir).

Here are five of them:

antworten = to answer

danken = to thank

gehören = to belong to

glauben = to believe

helfen = to help

With these verbs you use mir, dir, ihm, ihr, uns, euch, ihnen.
