+====== Overview ======
 AKA The Personal Pronoun in the Accusative Case. Not to be confused with the dative, the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accusative_case|Accusative case]] deals with an entity which is the recepient of an action:
 > For example, "they" in English is nominative; "them" is accusative. The sentence "They like them" shows the nominative case and accusative case working in conjunction using the same base word. The syntactic functions of the accusative consist of designating the immediate object of an action, the intended result, the goal of a motion, and the extent of an action.
+In  Romanian, the Accusative is made up of a preposition, and a pronoun (which changes for first and second from the nominative)
+===== Prepositions =====

-  * Cu: With, By
+  * **Cu**: With, By
-  * La: To, At, On, With
+  * **La**: To, At, On, With
