Andreas,

Fair enough. From my philosophical, non-linguistics approach it seemed that
I could _technically_ call it a case, so I did. But it is certainly just a
suffixed definite article. (I actually didn't know Romanian and Scandinavian
langs did this as well; interesting)

That doesn't sound like anything you'd normally consider a case system.

The suffixed definite articles of Romanian and the Scandinavian languages
are
not considered case endings.
