abstract:In Indo-Aryan languages, and Eastern Iranian languages, the direct case (abbreviated ) is the name given to a grammatical case used with all three core relations: the agent of transitive verbs, the patient of transitive verbs, and the argument of intransitive verbs. Such a case may also be called the nominative case, but some linguists reserve that term for cases that cover other roles or combinations of roles.
"Preliminary information indicates the agent took actions to defend himself, " said a federal law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the case.
However, both Brewer of World Help and Tighe of Direct Relief said this case involved no deworming pills but rather a long laundry list of other medicines, supplies and equipment.
