Re: Ridiculous question for linguists/ language-likers

Celtic languages mutate quite a lot depending on case. Éire (Ireland), as Éirinn (from Ireland), Poblacht na hÉireann (The Republic of Ireland).

I'd never use anything but the accusative in English though.

That said, it occurs to me that there's a famous legend called "The Children of Lir", but "Lir" is the genetive case. And whatever way it slipped in, when we talk about that legend we use the genetive as the nominative now.
