Usage notes

• There is a general tendency to use nützen instead of nutzen in the southern half of the language area. In Austria, nützen is even the predominant standard form.
• In northern and central German, nützen is used alongside nutzen for the sense “to be useful; to benefit”, but almost never for the sense “to make use of”.
