What is the "autobenefactive case"?
The autobenefactive case is a grammatical case used to indicate that the action of a verb benefits the subject or the agent performing the action. This case highlights a relationship where the subject is both the doer of the action and the one receiving the advantage from it. The autobenefactive case is found in some languages, such as the Uralic languages. For example, in such languages, the form of a noun may change to reflect that the subject is doing something for their own benefit.
