Elative case

In grammar, the elative case (abbreviated ELA; from Latin: efferre "to bring or carry out") is a locative grammatical case signifying that something comes from something, somewhere or someone.

[1] In Finnish, the elative is typically formed by adding sta/stä, in Estonian by adding -st to the genitive stem, -õst in Livonian and -sto in Erzya.

In Hungarian, the suffix -ból/-ből expresses the elative:[1] In some dialects of Finnish it is common to drop the final vowel of the elative ending, which then becomes identical to the elative morpheme of Estonian; for example: talost.

In some rare cases the elative still exists in contemporary Russian, though it was used more widely in 17-18th cc.
