{{Short description|Grammatical case that indicates time}} In [[grammar]], the '''temporal case''' (or '''Temporalis''' [[list of glossing abbreviations|abbreviated]] {{sc|'''temp'''}}) is a [[grammatical case]] used to indicate a time. In the [[Hungarian language]] its suffix is ''-kor''. For example: ''hétkor'' "at seven" or ''hét órakor'' "at seven o'clock", ''éjfélkor'' "at midnight", ''karácsonykor'' "at Christmas". This is one of the few suffixes in Hungarian to which rules of [[vowel harmony]] do not apply. In [[Finnish language|Finnish]] its suffix is ''-lloin / -llöin''.<ref name="PanuMäkinen--AdvCases">{{cite web|last1=Mäkinen|first1=Panu|title=Finnish Grammar - Adverbial Cases|url=http://users.jyu.fi/~pamakine/kieli/suomi/sijat/sijatadverbien.html|website=users.jyu.fi|publisher=University of Jyväskylä|accessdate=6 March 2015}}</ref> For example: ''milloin'' - when?; ''jolloin'' - when (relative pronoun); ''tällöin'' - at this time; ''silloin'' - then; ''tuolloin'' - at that time. In [[Russian language|Russian]] the function of temporal case is assumed by [[Instrumental case|Instrumental]], e.g. ''утр-ом'' (base form is ''утро'') - in the morning, ''дн-ём'' (base form is ''день'') - in the daytime/in the afternoon, ''вечер-ом'' (base form is ''вечер'') - at night/in the evening, ''ночь-ю'' (base form is ''ночь'') - at nighttime/in the night.
