§ 85. _Mutual_, e.g., _comparison_ and _price_ or _penalty_. § 86. The "attributive Gen." is a comprehensive relation, arising under several of the above heads, between two nouns designating _different_ objects, which may be thus expressed: _When two nouns are connected with each other, that one which completes the idea of the other and defines it more fully is put in the Gen._ § 87. DATIVE, denoting _position_, answering to _Where?_ and expressed by _at_. § 88. "_Local_," involving the more palpable relations of position. This includes the place, (at, by, near, in the midst of; generally with á¼Î½, á¼Ïί, ÏαÏά, etc.,) _association, accompaniment,_ (frequently with ÏÏν,) and the _time_ (as a date) or _circumstances_ of a transaction. § 89. "_Causal_," denoting the object _upon which_ the act or state appears, thus conceived as sharing in producing it, as follows:-- § 90. _Personal_, either actually or so imagined. This includes words expressing a _correlative_ idea, as community, (in varied relations,) likeness, possession, agency, reference, etc. § 91. _Instrumental_, as the mediate cause, e.g., the ground or reason, the means, the instrument, manner, and the measure of excess or deficiency. |
