This was an interesting show for me because I always find it challenging to describe case to English speakers. We don’t use it, except for pronouns like we and us. But this experiment is all about how people use case, and it turns out that the way they used it in this experiment matches what people do in actual languages. Is that because we have an innate bioprogram, or just because it’s easier to do things that way? It’s hard to tell the difference.
