Instrumental-comitative case

{{Short description|Grammatical case}}

In grammar, the instrumental-comitative case combines the instrumental case and the comitative case, functioning in a similar way to the English preposition "with". It may indicate the means of the action (for example, "with a knife", "using a fork", "by tram") and the person in whose company the action is carried out (for example, "with his family"), as well as other meanings such as the temporal or the modal.

The instrumental-comitative case exists in Hungarian{{cite book|title=On Comitatives and Related Categories|page=10|year=2006|last1=Stolz|first1=Thomas|last2=Stroh|first2=Cornelia|last3=Urdze|first3=Aina|publisher=Mouton de Gruyter|isbn=978-3-11-018587-4}}, Selkup, and Ubykh languages.
