Latest comment: abhinc 17 annos by Roland2 in topic Order of the cases

Credo dici " genus naturale" vice " genus naturalis" "dei masculini sunt" vice " dei masculina sunt "

Order of the cases recensere

Now the order is:

Nominativus 	
Vocativus 	
Accusativus 	
Genitivus 	
Dativus 	
Ablativus 	
Locativus

Shouldn't the cases be ordered by their alternative names?

Nominativus    1st case
Vocativus      5th case
Accusativus    4th case
Genitivus      2nd case
Dativus        3rd case
Ablativus      6th case
Locativus      ???

Or are these alternative names not common?

Whoah... Nah...they should be
Nominativus 	
Genitivus 	
Dativus 	
Accusativus
Ablativus
Vocativus 	 	
Locativus
That is standard order for textbooks and is the order for the modern inflected languages I know. Russian, Greek, Romanian (though they only have nom, gen, acc), my german textbooks list it that way. Wheelock's lists it that way, Cambridge, Ecce Romani, Genny's, etc...--Ioshus Rocchio 02:24, 1 Maii 2006 (UTC)Reply
Also, no I do not think they should be listed by the number names.--Ioshus Rocchio 02:26, 1 Maii 2006 (UTC)Reply
Your suggestion is nearly the ordering I have in mind. I found these references ;-)
(See http://www.google.at/search?q=ablativ+vokativ&hl=de&lr=&cr=countryAT&start=0&sa=N)
Some of these are academic ressources, however, I must confess that I have not listed the ressources which support other orderings ;-) I was searching in Google for Austrian pages and it seems that the order I have in mind is just used when the focus is on Latin. If someone is talking more general, other orderings are used, e. g. http://culturitalia.uibk.ac.at/hispanoteca/Lexikon%20der%20Linguistik/k/KASUS%20%20%20Caso.htm ("... rekonstruierten K. des Ideur.: Nominativ, Genitiv, Dativ, Akkusativ, Ablativ, Lokativ, Instrumental, Vokativ."). Another point: Most of my ressources are either at the high school level or are Latin courses at the university which are mandatory for some studies like medicine. These are not the ressources which advanced linguists would use, I think. --Roland2 07:07, 1 Maii 2006 (UTC)Reply
