In Kyoti puella habitat.

I'm unlinking it, Lisa. Thanks.
BTW, it wouldn't be "in Kyoti", but simply "Kyoti" or "Kiotii". No preposition is required.

Could you please correct/unlink your German translation?

alexmarcelo alexmarcelo February 9, 2013 February 9, 2013 at 5:39:14 AM UTC link Permalink

Oh, and the Russian, too.

Yes, you are right. The locative is used with names of towns and small islands ending in -us, -a, -um and is identical to the genitive singular. Would you agree to that? ☺

I have unlinked the German and Russian sentences.

alexmarcelo alexmarcelo February 9, 2013 February 9, 2013 at 5:58:39 AM UTC link Permalink

Yes, and we also use the Locative with some common nouns, such as "domus" (domi = at home) and "rus" (ruri = in the country).

Thanks for unlinking... My brain usually reads "Tokyo" and "Kyoto" the same way...

I know exactly what you mean. ‘I’, ‘we’, and ‘Tom’ also look the same to me sometimes. ☺
