>The genitive (eqv. の) is not a karaka, since it has no relation to the verb.
Unless I'm misunderstanding your point, Hindi's sambandh kaarak (ka-ke-ki-ra-re-ri-na-ne-ni) is the genitive case. watashi no hon <-> meri pustak, etc
- akssri 10y agoIt is indeed the सम्बन्ध; it's not a कारक technically. The canonical defn. of कारक is that which relates a noun to the verb. सम्बन्ध relates relations between nouns (you can't have sentences with only a verb and a noun in genitive).
- Arnavion 10y ago:shrug: It's part of the list of kaarak and is taught as such.
- akssri 10y agoShrug all you want, but it most certainly is not and neither will it ever be. The definitions have been laid out in the Ashtadhyayi ~2000 years back. It's not my concern if certain folk have no education in Panini, and are arrogant enough to ignore his work.
