The Noun and its Case
We all know what a noun is. In this section, we will study noun and its case. The relation in which a noun or a pronoun is associated with some other word in a sentence is called its case. There are five cases of a noun: Nominative – Noun is the subject, Objective – Noun is the object, Vocative – Noun is used to name someone or something, Dative – Indirect Object of the verb, Possessive – Noun denotes possession and ownership. To find the nominative and objective verb, we ask the question ‘who’ or ‘what’. And for possessive verb, we ask the question ‘whose’?
