The words in parentheses are the informal forms common in everyday speech and informal writing, and are spelled somewhat phonetically. In Dutch and Swedish, masculine and feminine nouns have combined into one form: common. Den is the common object pronoun in Swedish, while det is the neuter object pronoun. As for German reflexive pronouns, mich and dich are the accusative forms and mir and dir are the dative forms.
