Corresponding to the Etruscan pertinentive I ({{bib|Rix 1985}}: 128, {{bib|Wallace 2008}}: 47). Like the ablative, the pertinentive is built with genitive forms / adjectives of possession as base ({{bib|Rix 1985}}: 127). The pertinentive is historically a locative to the genitive, hence the complex pertinentive endings reflect both those of genitive and locative (''locatiuus genitiui'' in Eichner's terminology). The pertinentive I is based on the genitive I {{m||-s(i)}}, historically -''si'': ''-si-i'' > ''-si''. In this context, auslauting {{p||i}} survived apocope (while being lost in the genitive).


As might be expected, the use of the pertinentive I corresponds to that of the [[index::-s(i)|genitive I]], i.e. being the preferred allomorph for individual names not ending in a dental fricative.

Commentary

Corresponding to the Etruscan pertinentive I (Rix 1985: 128, Wallace 2008: 47). Like the ablative, the pertinentive is built with genitive forms / adjectives of possession as base (Rix 1985: 127). The pertinentive is historically a locative to the genitive, hence the complex pertinentive endings reflect both those of genitive and locative (locatiuus genitiui in Eichner's terminology). The pertinentive I is based on the genitive I -s(i), historically -si: -si-i > -si. In this context, auslauting i survived apocope (while being lost in the genitive).

As might be expected, the use of the pertinentive I corresponds to that of the genitive I, i.e. being the preferred allomorph for individual names not ending in a dental fricative.
