  1. Translative case

    The translative case is a grammatical case that indicates a change in state of a noun, with the general sense of "becoming X" or "change to X". In the Finnish language, this is the counterpart of the Essive case, with the basic meaning of a change of state. It is also used for expressing "in", "considering it's a" and "by". Its ending is -ksi. Examples: ⁕pitkä "long", venyi pitkäksi " stretched long" ⁕englanti "English", englanniksi "in English" ⁕pentu "cub", Se on pennuksi iso "For a cub, it is big" ⁕musta aukko "black hole", mustaksi aukoksi " a black hole" ⁕kello kuusi " six o' clock", kello kuudeksi "by six o' clock" Examples in Estonian: ⁕must auk "black hole", mustaks auguks " a black hole" ⁕kell kuus " six o' clock", kella kuueks "by six o' clock" Examples in Hungarian. The ending is -vá / -vé after a vowel; assimilating to the final consonsant otherwise: ⁕só "salt", Lót felesége sóvá változott "Lot's wife turned into salt" ⁕fiú "boy; son" fiává fogad "adopt as one's son" ⁕bolond "fool" bolonddá tett engem "He made a fool out of me."
