Just a moment Miguel. There is no "oblique" case in Romanian as such. At
least I am not aware of something like this and in the literature I read
there is no mention about any oblique case in Romanian. There are just
the well known 5 cases:
Nom, Gen, Dat, Acc, Voc.

Are you sure we are speaking about the same thing? If yes, then one of
us -more probably is me the one- use different notion for what you call
here "oblique". And this is why I asked for a definition of the
"oblique" case for understanding the way of using it.

Hmmm.. I am afraid somewhere the path is lost or I lost it.How I said,
one does not speak about this oblique case in Rom.
