Editing Abessive case (section)

===Estonian===

[[Estonian language|Estonian]] also uses the abessive, which is marked by {{lang|et|-ta}} in both the singular and the plural:
:{{lang|et|(ilma) autota}} "without a car" (the preposition {{lang|et|ilma}} "without" is optional)
Unlike in Finnish, the abessive is commonly used in both written and spoken Estonian.

The [[Verbal noun|nominal forms of verbs]] are marked with the affix {{lang|et|-ma-}} and the abessive marker {{lang|et|-ta}}:
:{{lang|et|Rong jäi tulemata.}} "The train didn't show up."

[[Tallinn]] has a pair of [[bar (establishment)|bars]] that play on the use of the [[comitative]] and [[abessive]], the {{lang|et|Nimeta baar}}<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nimetabaar.ee/English.html |title=Nimeta Bar News |access-date=2006-06-27 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060707113952/http://www.nimetabaar.ee/English.html |archive-date=2006-07-07 }} Nimeta baar, English page</ref> (the nameless bar) and the {{lang|et|Nimega baar}}<ref>http://www.baarid.ee/en/NimegaBar/programm.php Nimega baar  {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120313133736/http://www.baarid.ee/en/NimegaBar/programm.php |date=March 13, 2012 }}</ref> (the bar with a name).
