Locative case

The locative case (called prepositional case in Russian) is found in:\n* in modern Baltic and Slavic languages\n* some classical Indo-European languages, particularly Sanskrit and Latin\n* 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. \n\n
