translativeessive

Translative is a case used in some languages to indicate a change of location or state. It is often used to express movement from one place to another or a change in condition. The translative case is found in languages such as Finnish, Estonian, and Hungarian. In Finnish, for example, the translative case is used to indicate the direction of movement. The word "kauppaan" (to the store) is in the translative case, indicating movement towards the store. The translative case is distinct from the inessive case, which indicates location within a place, and the elative case, which indicates movement away from a place. The translative case is a useful tool for expressing movement and change in languages that employ it.
