✦Grammar Breakdown
ÖffnedieAdmin-SeitedeinesRouters
Imperativ (2. Person Singular)
„Öffne“ is the imperative form of the verb „öffnen“ for “du”. It is used to give a direct command.
Akkusativ‑Artikel „die“
The noun „Admin‑Seite“ is feminine, so the accusative definite article is „die“.
Kompositum „Admin‑Seite“
German often builds nouns by joining two words; here „Admin“ (short for „Administrator“) and „Seite“ form a compound meaning “admin page”.
Possessivpronomen im Genitiv
„deines“ is the genitive form of the possessive pronoun „dein“ and agrees with the masculine/neuter noun „Router“.
Genitiv‑Endung „‑s“ bei Maskulina
Masculine nouns in the genitive singular normally add an ‑s (or ‑es). Hence „Routers“.

✕Common Mistakes
Öffne die Admin‑Seite dein Router.
The noun needs the genitive case, so you must say „deines Routers“.
Öffne dein Router.
„öffnen“ takes a direct object; you cannot use the noun without an article or possessive.
Öffne die Admin‑Seite von dein Router.
After „von“ the possessive must be in the dative: „von deinem Router“.

Cultural Tip
In German technical instructions the informal “du” is common among friends or in casual tutorials, but in professional settings you would usually use the formal “Sie”: „Öffnen Sie die Admin‑Seite Ihres Routers.“ Also, the term „Admin‑Seite" is widely understood, but some older users may prefer "Router‑Einstellungsseite".
