Cases - Latin and English Differences - Cases

In English we have subjects, objects, and a possessive form. These are the three cases recognized in English. Our indirect objects are objects of prepositions. We also have a limited vocative case used for yelling at people. In Latin the indirect object case is different from the prepositional cases, and there are two prepositional cases.

English vs. Latin

1. Subject vs Nominative Case
2. Possessive vs Genitive Case
3. Indirect Object (preposition) vs Dative Case
4. Objective vs Accusative Case
5. Objective (preposition) vs Accusative/Ablative (preposition)
6. e.g., "Mommy!" vs. Vocative Case
7. ---- vs. Locative (place)
