Keywords: accusative; intention; goal; prepositional case terms

Summary/Abstract: In a complex system of prepositional case terms expressing intentional meaning significant place has accusative with prepositions na, po, u and za. Accusative, as the case of marginal directivity, points to achievement of a certain goal. However, here, intention that this goal is not only achieved or to be held by it in some other way is really important. Therefore, these terms usually occur in the phrases with administrative verb word, but at the place of administrative member may occur substantive word, and, less frequently, an adjectival one.
