The intrative case (abbreviated itrt) is a case that roughly expresses the notion of the English prepositions "amidst" or "between".
It is found in the Limbu language, where it occurs with the locative suffix -ʼō. When conjoined, the two morphemes are pronounced as -lummō.[1]

It is also found in the Archi language, where it is marked with the affix -хъI(а-) (qˤ(a-)).[2]
