| genitive | hatanı the harm's | hatalanı the harms' | the owner — whose it is |
| accusative | hatanı the harm (as the object) | hatalanı the harms (as the object) | a specific, known object — whom or what |
| dative | hatağa to the harm | hatalağa to the harms | direction or recipient — to where, to whom |

The endings are the same ones the pronouns wear — that page explains when each case is used.
With an owner
| One owned | Several owned | |
|---|---|---|
| my | hatam my harm | hatalarım my harms |
| your | hataŋ your harm | hatalarıŋ your harms |
| his / her | hatası his / her harm | hataları his / her harms |
| our | hatabız our harm | hatalarıbız our harms |
| you all's | hatağız you all's harm | hatalarığız you all's harms |
| their | hataları their harm | hataları their harms |
The overlap in the last rows is real, not a mistake: hataları can mean "his / her harms", "their harm", or "their harms" — context decides.
