Definition:

CaseProperty is the class of properties that concerns the grammatical encoding of a noun's relationship (syntactic or semantic) to some other element in the sentence, such as a verb, noun, pronoun, or adposition [Pei and Gaynor 1954: 35; Crystal 1980: 53-54; Anderson 1985: 179-180; Andrews 1985: 7172; Kuno 1973: 45; Blake 2001].

Pertinentive Case is postulated for the description of Etruscan where it had two closely connected functions, namely, indirect object and beneficiary, when used in conjunction with a transitive verb such as *muluvanice* 'gave (as a gift)':

mini aranth ramuthasi vestiricinala muluvanice
I.ACC Aranth.NOM Ramutha.PERT Vestiricinai.PERT gave.PAST.ACTIVE
'Aranth gave me to/for Ramutha Vestiricinai.'

The original function of the pertinative may have been to express the locative of the genitive:

serturiesi
serturie-s-i
Serturie.GEN.LOC
"in the (workshop) of Serturie" (ascribed on a ceramic)
