Intrative case
This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Intrative_case".
The intrative case is a case that roughly expresses the notion of the English preposition "amidst".
It is found in the Limbu language, where it occurs with the locative suffix -ʔō. When conjoined, the two morphemes are pronounced as -lummō.
