 Dative case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dative case is a grammatical case generally used to indicate the noun to whom something is given.
The pronoun whom is also a remnant of the dative case in English, descending from the Old English dative pronoun "hwām" (as opposed to the nominative "who", which descends from Old English "hwā") — though "whom" also absorbed the functions of the Old English accusative pronoun "hwone".
The Old English language, current until approximately the time of the Norman Conquest in 1066, had a dative case; however, the English case system gradually fell into disuse during the Middle English period, when the accusative and dative pronouns merged into a single objective pronoun used in both roles.

 Accusative case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The accusative case of a noun is the grammatical case used to mark the direct object of a verb.
This is the form in nominative case, used for the subject of a sentence.
"Whom" is the accusative case of "who"; "him" is the accusative case of "he" (the final "m" of both of these words can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European accusative case suffix); and "her" is the accusative case of "she".

 Essive case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The essive or similaris case carries the meaning of a temporary state of being, often equivalent to the English "as a...".
In the Finnish language, this case is marked by adding "-na/-nä" to the stem of the noun.
Some expressions use the essive in the ancient locative meaning, e.g.

 Comitative case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It, and many other cases, are found in the Finnish language, the Hungarian language, and the Estonian language.
The Comitative case is used where English would use "in company with" or "together with".
It is debatable if this is a grammatical case, because it does not obey vowel harmony ; that is, there is no form -nkää.

 Nominative Case Encyclopedia Article, History, Biography @ Local Color Art
In nominative-absolutive languages, the nominative case marks the subject of a transitive verb or a voluntary subject of an intransitive verb, but not an involuntary subject of an intransitive verb (for which the absolutive case is used).
The nominative case is a grammatical case for a noun.
The nominative case is the usual, natural form (more technically, the least marked) of certain parts of speech, such as nouns, adjectives, pronouns and less frequently numerals and participles, and sometimes does not indicate any special relationship with other parts of speech.

 DigeratiCafe: Vocative case :Online Reference Section
In English the vocative case is not marked, but English syntax performs a similar function; witness: "John, could you come here?" or "I don't think so, John", where "John" is neither subject nor object of the verb, but rather indicates the person to whom the statement is being addressed.
The vocative case is the case used for a noun identifying the person being addressed, found in Latin among other languages.
In Latin the vocative case of a noun is the same as the nominative, except for masculine singular second declension nouns that have the ending -us in the nominative case.

 Genitive case - www.catalogofcasinos.com
Linguists generally believe that English possessive is no longer a case at all, but has become a clitic, an independent particle which, however, is always written and pronounced as part of the preceding word.
The genitive case is a grammatical case that indicates a relationship, primarily one of possession, between the noun in the genitive case and another noun.
In some languages, nouns in the genitive case also agree in case with the nouns they modify (that is, the head noun is marked for two cases).

 Partitive case - Wikpedia
In the Finnish language, this case is often used to express unknown identities and irresultative actions.
The partitive case is a grammatical case which denotes "partialness", "without result", or "without specific identity".
The case with an unspecified identity is onko teillä kirjoja, which uses the partitive, because it refers to unspecified books, as contrasted to accusative onko teillä (ne) kirjat?

 Hungarian language -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article
This couldn't be done without reinterpreting to a certain extent the notion of what a case is for agglutinating languages, such as those in the (A family of Uralic languages indigenous to Scandinavia and Hungary and Russia and western Siberia (prior to the Slavic expansion into those regions)) Finno-Ugric language group.

 Ergative Case Encyclopedia Article, History, Biography @ Local Color Art
New work in case theory has vigorously supported the idea that the ergative case identifies the agent (intentful doer of action) of a verb (Woolford 2004).
In such languages, the ergative case is typically marked (most salient), while the absolutive case is unmarked.
In ergative-absolutive languages, the ergative case identifies the subject of a transitive verb.

 Articles - Inessive case
In the Finnish language, the inessive case is considered the first of the six locative cases, which correspond to locational prepositions in English.
In Hungarian, the suffix "ban/ben" is most commonly used for inessive case, although many others, such as -on, -en, -ön and others are also used, especially with cities.

 Articles - Illative case
Illative is, in the Finnish language, Estonian language and the Hungarian language, the third of the locative cases with the basic meaning of "into (the inside of)".
In Finnish, the case is formed by adding -h@n, where '@' represents the last vowel, and then removing the 'h' if a simple long vowel would result.
To form illative case from a Lithuanian word, the ending is changed into "n" in singular; some vowels might change in the process also.
