Comitative case may be confused with Instrumental case, as both of them may be translated with English preposition “with”. The difference is that either word “together” or presence of companion or emotion is implied in Comitative case, while Instrumental case means “with use of”, “using”. Compare: “He speaks with fear in his voice” = “Tagashn ufurmsha mogtabishi” (COM) vs. “He speaks with flattery” = “Tagashn glizgirzi” (INS) vs. “He talks with elves” = “Tashugb golugsha” (COM) vs. “He talks with his mouth” = “Tashugb putabirzi” (INS).
