In a prototypical nominative accusative language with a grammatical case system, like Latin , the object of a verb is marked for accusative case , while the subject of the verb may or may not be marked for nominativecase . The nominative, whether or not marked morphologically, is also used as the citation form of the noun. In a marked nominative system, on the other hand, it is the nominativecase alone that is marked morphologically, and it is the unmarked accusative case that is used as the citation form of the noun. Because this resembles an absolutive case , it is often called a nominative absolutive system. Marked nominative languages are relatively rare.

Type systems In computer science , a nominal or nominative type system or name based type system is a major class of type system , in which compatibility and equivalence of data type s is determined by explicit declarations and or the name of the types. Nominative systems are used to determine if types are equivalent, as well as if a type is a subtype of another. It contrasts with Structural type system structural systems , where comparisons are based on the structure of the types in question and do not require explicit declarations. Nominal typing Nominal typing means that two variables are type compatible if and only if their declarations name the same type. For example, in C programming language C , two code struct code types with different names are never considered compatible, even if they have identical field declarations. However, C also allows a code typedef code declaration, which introduces an alias for an existing type. These are merely syntax syntactical and do not differentiate the type from its alias for the purpose of type checking. This feature, present in many languages, can result in a loss of type safety when for example the same primitive integer type is used in two semantically distinct ways. Haskell programming language Haskell provides the C style syntactic alias, as well as a declaration that does introduce a new, distinct type, isomorphism isomorphic to an existing type. Nominal subtyping In a similar fashion, nominal subtyping means that one type is a subtype of another if and only if it is explicitly declared to be so in its definition. Nominally typed languages typically enforce the requirement that declared subtypes be structurally compatible though Eiffel programming language Eiffel allows non compatible subtypes to be declared . However, subtypes ... links http www.c2.com cgi wiki?NominativeAndStructuralTyping c2.com Nominative and structural typing DEFAULTSORT Nominative Type System Category Type systems fr syst me nominatif de types ... more details

In ergative languages In ergative absolutive language s, the absolutive is the case used to mark both the subject of an intransitive verb and the object of a transitive verb , in addition to being used for the citation form of a noun. It contrasts with the marked ergative case , which marks the subject of a transitive verb. For example, in Basque language Basque the noun mutil boy takes the bare singular article grammar article a both as subject of the intransitive clause mutila etorri da the boy came and as object of the transitive clause Irakasleak mutila ikusi du the teacher has seen the boy , in which the subject bears the ergative ending a k . In marked nominative languages In nominative absolutive language s, also called marked nominative languages, the nominative has a case inflection, while the accusative and citation form do not. The unmarked accusative citation form may be called absolutive to clarify that there citation form is used for the accusative case role rather than for the nominative, which it is in most nominative accusative languages. In tripartite languages In tripartite language s, both the agent and object of a transitive clause have case forms, ergative and accusative, whereas the agent of an intransitive clause is the unmarked citation form. This is occasionally called the intransitive case , but absolutive is also used and is perhaps more accurate, since it is not limited to core agents of intransitive verbs. In accusative languages In nominative accusative language s, both core cases may be marked, but not infrequently only the accusative is. In such situations the term absolutive would aptly describe the nominative, but the term is seldom used that way. See also Morphosyntactic ... more details
Case in tiers is a model for assigning declension surface case to noun phrase s NPs in a sentence. Introduced in Yip, Maling, and Ray Jackendoff Jackendoff 1987, it has received at least 88 scholarly citations according to Google Scholar. The model takes its inspiration from the seminal and at that time already successful model of prosodic morphology McCarthy 1981 , which posits that the structure of a phonological word is a stack of types of elements e.g., vowels, consonants, syllabic pitches , with each element type being provided with its own tier of the stack. Yip et al. decompose the structure of an individual sentence into a tier of structural cases, a tier of lexical cases, and a skeletal tier of the NPs in the sentence. The structural case tier is homologous to the consonant matrix lexical root of a Semitic verb, while the lexical case tier is homologous to the set of vowels in a Semitic verb word form. The lexical cases are assigned to specific NPs in the skeletal tier. The structural cases are assigned sequentially, with the direction of assignment depending on which case alignment is the characteristic one for the language in question. For Nominative accusative language nominative accusative alignment, the structural cases are assigned from left to right, with Nominativecasenominativecase preceding Accusative case accusative . For Ergative absolutive language ergative absolutive alignment, the direction of assignment is right to left, with Absolutive case absolutive preceding Ergative case ergative .
