Grammar lesson 7.2 question

Hi Nathalie, I'm confused by the endings for "euer" given for the singular neuter nominative and accusative. It says that for both it is "eures," but I would have thought it would be "euer," since "unser" and "ihr" for neuter nominative and accusative (singular) are unchanged. Can you help me with this? Thanks! Karen

I finally checked this out in a German textbook I have, and it looks like on their chart that the endings for "euer" for neuter case, in both nominative and accusative, are "euer" and not "eures." If I understand correctly, "eures" is for genitive only? So I wondered if "eures" listed for nom. and accus. in lesson 7.2 might be a typo -- or I could just be completely confused! Which is entirely possible. Also, in the same lesson, one of the example sentences is "Das ist eurer Hotel," and I thought that would be "euer" also. Again, it could just be me not getting it, but I wanted to bring it up in case it is actually a typographical error on the grammar lesson. I finished the course and I can't believe how much I've learned! Really looking forward to when the next level is available. Thanks, Karen
