Locative case Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

The locative case (called prepositional case in Russian) is found in:

  • in modern Baltic and Slavic languages, as well as in Turkish. For instance, in Turkish, elim means: my hand, and elimde means in my hand, so using de and da suffixes, the locative case is marked.
  • some classical Indo-European languages, particularly Sanskrit and Latin
  • in uncommon, archaic or literary use in certain modern Indian languages (such as Marathi in which a separate ablative case has however disappeared)

The locative case corresponds vaguely to the preposition "in", "at", or "by" of English and indicates a final location of action or a time of the action.

In languages such as Finnish, there is a set of six distinct locative cases that express different relationships to location. In Hungarian language, nine such cases exist, yet the name locative case refers to a form used only in a few town names instead of or along with the Inessive case or Superessive case. It is no longer productive.
