Case in Tevrés is a somewhat complex affair. There are three [[w:Grammatical case|noun cases]]; the direct-genitive, accusative-dative, and the indirect-ablative. These cases can occupy different [[w:Thematic relation|thematic relation]] based on the verb paradigm in use in a given clause, as well as whether or not the argument is a part of a verbs ''core valency''. Core valency is the minimum number of arguments a verb must take. Each case has a core use, defined by the first half of its name, and a non-core use, defined by the second. As stated, core uses deal with the noun's relation to the verb, whilst non-core uses tend to address a noun's relationship with other nouns. | |||
