Well, these are not real cases as known in Slavic languages.
The Czech has seven cases (Slovak has six of them), each of them is used in different
situations with different prepositions and each of them modifies the original word.
The Hungarian 'cases' are just prepositions (for, to, at, under, with, from,...), that
are put at the end of a noun. They have usually two possible forms to harmonize with the
last syllabe of the noun. |

And I've never studied Hungarian, but from looking at those "declension charts" for Hungarian nouns in Wiktionary, forming the plural of the cases pretty much is just pluralizing suffix + whatever case ending was used in the singular. Slavic languages' plural cases, however, are more complex to form.
