Pertinent
The pertinentiv , also emphatic genitive , is the name of a case that was used in the Tyrsenic languages ( Etruscan , Lemnian , Rhaetian ). It is a locative to the genitive . This case has the function of assigning an object or an individual both locally (“in the area of X”) and temporally (“at the time of X”).
The term pertinentiv was first used by the Etruscologist Helmut Rix in 1984. Some researchers consider the pertinentive to be a dative or a subgroup of the locative.
education
The pertinentive is formed by adding the ending of the locative ( -i ) to the genitive form (on -s or -l ) . According to the two genitive in Etruscan there are two pertinentives.
