Definição e Significado de "sublative case"

What is the "sublative case"?

The sublative case is a grammatical case used to indicate movement onto or toward a surface or area. It often expresses the idea of "onto" or "upon" in relation to a location or object. This case is found in some languages, such as Hungarian, where it modifies nouns to show this direction. For example, in Hungarian, the word for "table" is "asztal," and in the sublative case, it becomes "asztalra," meaning "onto the table." The sublative case helps clarify the destination of an action involving a surface or area in a sentence.
