Grammatical Cases

Grammatical cases are different forms that nouns, pronouns, and adjectives take to show their role in a sentence.

In languages with case systems, such as Latin, Russian, or German, the form of a word changes based on its function in the sentence.

There are several common cases:

1. Nominative: Used for the subject of a sentence.
2. Accusative: Used for the direct object of a verb.
3. Genitive: Indicates possession or relationship.
4. Dative: Indicates the indirect object of a verb.
5. Vocative: Used for addressing someone or something directly.

(And many more – as many as 64 in languages such as Tsez).

Different languages may have different numbers and types of cases, and they play a crucial role in determining word order and sentence structure.
