Best way to study nominative cases

Post by FutsuuNoOtoko » Mon Mar 03, 2014 7:48 am

Throughout my studies of Finnish I've found ample amounts of information of verb conjugation, vocabulary, grammar, and so forth. However one thing I haven't found in abundance is material on nominative cases. I'm comfortable with all the cases and their uses but I found when doing translation work that the thing that I am the weakest at is the nominative cases. I'm planning on investing a large amount of time into learning all of the nominative cases for the different groups of nominatives. Does anyone know of any good material on this subject?

Are you talking about the nominative case (as in the basic form of the word; the nominative case of "koira" is "koira") or the cases of nomini (=noun, adjective, numeral, pronoun) words?

Nominative cases as in the cases of the nominal. Not just the nominative but the genitive, illative, inessive, and so forth.
