Here's a brief overview of their functions: Nominative (Prathamā): Used for the subject of a sentence. Accusative (Dvitīyā): Marks the direct object of a verb. Instrumental (Tṛtīyā): Indicates the means or instrument by which an action is performed. Dative (Chaturthī): Indicates the recipient or beneficiary of an action. Ablative (Pañcamī): Expresses separation, source, or cause. Genitive (Ṣaṣṭhī): Denotes possession or association. Vocative (Saptamī): Used for addressing someone or something. Locative (Sambodhana): Indicates location or place where an action takes place. These cases play a crucial role in determining the roles and relationships of nouns and pronouns in Sanskrit sentences, making it a highly inflected language. read less
