| Apr 8, 2014 at 10:49 | comment | added | rogermue | @Emanuel I answered mainly the question is there an accepted term. At first I used a term I would use, but then I found that the Duden grammar uses this term as well. As to where "Das ist mir" one should consult the Deutscher Sprachatlas, but I hadn't the time. | |
| Apr 8, 2014 at 10:34 | comment | added | Emanuel | @rogermue... well, then I don't see how this is an answer because OP wanted to know WHAT regions this is asked in. The answer got accepted for some reason but I don't think it matches the question very well. | |
| Apr 8, 2014 at 10:29 | comment | added | rogermue | I wrote "Das ist mir" is regional and I don't know where it is said. Duden says the possessive dative is known everywhere, but he means constructions with dative + sein/e as in Das ist dem Maier sein Auto/seine Frau. | |
| Apr 8, 2014 at 10:13 | comment | added | Emanuel | So you're saying that "Das ist mir" is said all over the country with similar frequency? I doubt that. "Dem sein" is one thing, "das ist mir" is another thing, even if they can be described with the same grammatical term. | |
