Slovak Case Inventory #
@cite{short-1993-slovak} @cite{blake-1994}
Per @cite{short-1993-slovak} (p. 541): "The case system has shrunk from seven members to six, the vocative being replaced by the nominative. Some vocative forms survive, but are not considered part of their respective paradigms. They occur in addressing kin, close friends, the deity and high dignitaries and are essentially formulaic, whether familiar, jocular or formal."
Slovak thus patterns with Russian, Slovene, and Belarusian as 6-case
without productive VOC. caseInventory aliases the shared
Slavic.Case.coreInventory.
