Usage notes
- Prinz is a weak noun in the standard language, but is part of a group of nouns which have a stark tendency to be strong colloquially, so one might hear dem Prinz instead of dem Prinzen.
- Prinz is a title held by the male descendants of a reigning monarch or Fürst. The ruler of a principality or the head of a noble family, which is also translated as prince in English, instead holds the title Fürst.
