Vocative Case in Emails
This module allows you to change the standard “Hi {first_name}” greeting in emails to a custom formulation with automatic name inflection into the 5th grammatical case (vocative).
The vocative case is a grammatical feature used in Czech (and some other Slavic languages) for directly addressing a person. In Czech, names change their form when used in direct address - for example, “Vaclav” becomes “Vaclave” when saying “Hello, Vaclave!”. This module automatically applies this grammatical transformation to provide proper, natural-sounding customer greetings in Czech emails.
