Accusative case
The
accusative case (
abbreviated ) of a
noun is the
grammatical case used to mark the
direct object of a
transitive verb. The same case is used in many languages for the objects of (some or all)
prepositions. It is a noun that is having something done to it, usually joined (such as in
Latin) with the
nominative case. The syntactic functions of the accusative consist of designating the immediate object of an action, the intended result, the goal of a motion, and the extent of an action.
