The Dative case serves three primary functions. It may also indicate the direct object for some verbs
1. Indirect object and personal interest - It serves as the case of personal interest by indicating the indirect object of the verb. It points to or for whom something was done. It can also be used to indicate someone or something that is being referred to by the verb, including possession.
2. location - It may indicate the location (in place, sphere, or time) of an event.
3. Instrumental - It may indicate the means, cause, manner, agent of an action.
4. Direct object- Some verbs take their direct object in the dative case.
