Delative case
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The delative case (from Latin deferre "to bear or bring away or down") in the Hungarian language can originally express the movement from the surface of something (e.g. "off the table"), but it is used in several other meanings (e.g. "about people"), some of them related to the original (e.g. "from the post office").
In Finnish delative is used with certain pronouns and expresses the movement away from somewhere.
