ABSTRACT

We had a very brief look at cases in Chapter 3 when we looked at nouns and they have appeared in other chapters as well. In this chapter we are going to take a more in-depth look at the use of the different cases. The cases are very important in understanding Latvian as they cause nouns to have different endings, pronouns change according to the case, adjective endings change to agree with nouns in different cases and prepositions are followed by different cases.
