My conlang has a case that I've called "directional", for lack of a better term. It is the counterpart of the locative case, used for an item (any item) that is in motion (any kind of motion). I suppose you could call it simply "lative", since the prefixes would refine its meaning too much, but for some reason that looks silly to me.

I suppose there may be some subtile difference, but I can't seem to come up with one. -- Daniel Seriff microtonal@sericap.com http://members.tripod.com/microtonal Si me iterum insanum appelles, oculum alterum tuum edem. Wenn du mich nochmal verrückt nennst, werde ich deine andere Auge essen.
