| | Appreciating the author’s ties to the Catholic Church, this book focus on former priests, but I suspect such problems are not unique to that religion. | | | McInerny invites and encourages his readers to exercise their minds. | | | The Ablative Case, while ostensibly about a man with a mistress, a wife and a problem, poses several questions about the ethics and morals of lapsed clergymen. |

| | Genitive case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This can be shown by the following example: "The king of Sparta's wife was called Helen." If the English -'s were a genitive case mark, then the wife would belong to Sparta; but the -'s attaches not to the word Sparta, but to the entire phrase the king of Sparta. | | | Many languages have a genitive case, including Lithuanian, Arabic, Latin, Irish, Georgian, Greek, German, Dutch, Russian, Finnish and Sanskrit. | | | 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 pronounced as part of the preceding word. |

| | The locative case, along with the dative case, is one of the most often used cases. | | | Although the locative case can be translated into English using different words ("in", "at", "on") depending on the context, there is some commonality in each word's meaning. | | | Some meanings resemble the locative case, while sometimes it is used the way the dative case is. We will postpone it for later. |

| | The dative case is most familiar to English speakers as the case of the indirect object, and the most common instance of the indirect object is the person "to or for whom" something is given: "I gave the book to her", "to her" would be in the dative case. | | | Towns (like Athens, Athenae) whose form is plural take their locative forms from the Ablative plural in all declensions. | | | The subject is the person or thing about which the predicate makes a statement, and the name, "nominative," means "pertaining to the person or thing designated." In Latin the subject does not always need to be expressed because it can be indicated by the person and number of the verb. |

| | Another major distinction between Romance and Latin is that Romance languages, excluding Romanian, have lost their case endings in most words except for some pronouns. | | | In addition, there exists in some nouns a locative case used to express place (normally expressed by the ablative with a preposition such as IN), but this hold-over from Indo-European is only found in the names of lakes, cities, towns, similar locales, and a few other words. | | | Romanian still has five cases (though the ablative is no longer represented). |
