I'm looking for names for cases with the meanings indicated below.
I do have ideas for some of them, but am not sure. Any help much
appreciated!
"across" translative means something different in Finnish,
see <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translative>
"respectively" respective -- I find no confirmation of this.
"on top" superessive -- I'm almost certain on this one!
"under" subessive -- no confirmation but should be!
"in under" sublative seems to mean something else
see: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublative_case>
"outside"
"before"
"after"

"Maybe" is a strange word. When mum or dad says it
it means "yes", but when my big brothers say it it
means "no"!
