==== | ==== Dative-accusative ==== | ||
The [[w: | The [[w:Dative case|dative]]-[[w:Accusative case|accusative]] case ({{interlinear |DA}}) is used to mark the patient (also called the object) of transitive verbs, and both the theme (direct-genitive object) and recipient (indirect-genitive object) of ditransitive verbs. While in theory the overlap of these two roles may lead to confusion, in practice confusion is rare, and usually resolved via context. In cases where resolution of ambiguity is necessary the preposition ''a'' may be used to mark the indirect object. | ||

The | The dative-accusative can also be used with the ''a''-[[w:Applicative voice|applicative]] to mark the [[w:Benefactive case|benefactor]] of an action, or with the ''co''-applicative to mark [[w:comitative case|accompaniment]]. | ||
