Usage notes

The preposition laut governs either the dative or genitive case. Usage with dative has been more common since 1900:

• laut einem Bericht (also: eines Berichts) — according to a report.

The dative case is always used for plural nouns not preceded by an article, determiner, or adjective:

• laut Berichten (not: Berichte) — according to reports.

An isolated noun of the strong declension remains uninflected in the singular:

• laut Bericht (not: Berichts) — according to the report.

Synonyms

• lt.
