(grammar): In English and other modern languages, the case used to mark the immediate object (direct object) on which the transitive verb acts. In Latin grammar, the accusative case (cāsus accūsātīvus) includes functions derived from the Indo-European accusative and lative cases; said Lative Case express concepts similar to those of the English prepositions "to" and "towards".

(grammar) Noun case used to express some relationship such as possession or origin. It corresponds roughly to the English preposition “of” and the suffix “-'s”.

(grammar) Case used to express direction towards an indirect object, the recipient or beneficiary of an action, and is generally indicated in English by to (when a recipient) or for (when a beneficiary) with the objective case. The direct object may be either stated or unstated where the indirect object is the beneficiary of the verbal action, but is stated where the indirect object is a recipient. If there is emphasis on the indirect object, the indirect object usually precedes the direct object and is not usually indicated with to or for; said structure is also used when neither object is being emphasized.

(grammar) The case used to indicate the subject—or agent—of a finite verb. / (obsolete, grammar) The subject of a verb.
