What did the man want to eat? “The cake said the man!” Did the cake really say something? No, obviously the cake is the object of the verb “eat” and the man is the subject. In English we use “the” for both. German would use a different “the” for each. In this case the object gets “den” and the subject gets “der.” In English we usually do this by word order or by inserting a comma.
