Indirect Objects[redaktə | mənbəni redaktə et]
The dative case is used to indicate indirect objects. In Kazakh, the indirect object usually comes after the direct object. For example:
- Мен әкеңге қалам беремін. (Men äkeñge qalam beremin) - I will give a pen to my father.
- Сенің досыңа телефон қою керек. (Seniñ dosyña telefon qoyu kerek) - You need to put the phone for your friend.
In these examples, "әкең" (äkeñ) and "досың" (dosyñ) are in the dative case because they are the indirect objects.
