(Law) The matters of fact or conditions involved in a             suit, as distinguished from the questions of law; a suit             or action at law; a cause.                         Let us consider the reason of the case, for nothing                      is law that is not reason.                  --Sir John                                                                               Powell.                         Not one case in the reports of our courts. --Steele.          5. (Gram.) One of the forms, or the inflections or changes of             form, of a noun, pronoun, or adjective, which indicate its             relation to other words, and in the aggregate constitute             its declension; the relation which a noun or pronoun             sustains to some other word.                         Case is properly a falling off from the nominative                      or first state of word; the name for which, however,                      is now, by extension of its signification, applied                      also to the nominative.                     --J. W. Gibbs.          Note: Cases other than the nominative are oblique cases. Case                endings are terminations by which certain cases are                distinguished. In old English, as in Latin, nouns had                several cases distinguished by case endings, but in                modern English only that of the possessive case is                retained.          {Action on the case} (Law), according to the old             classification (now obsolete), was an action for redress             of wrongs or injuries to person or property not specially             provided against by law, in which the whole cause of             complaint was set out in the writ; -- called also             {trespass on the case}, or simply {case}.          {All a case}, a matter of indifference.

[Colloq.]                      {In any case}, whatever may be the state of affairs; anyhow.                      {In case}, or {In case that}, if; supposing that; in the             event or contingency; if it should happen that. [bd]In             case we are surprised, keep by me.[b8] --W. Irving.          {In good case}, in good condition, health, or state of body.                      {To put a case}, to suppose a hypothetical or illustrative             case.          Syn: Situation, condition, state; circumstances; plight;                predicament; occurrence; contingency; accident; event;                conjuncture; cause; action; suit.

Voice \Voice\, n. [OE. vois, voys, OF. vois, voiz, F. voix, L.       vox, vocis, akin to Gr. [?] a word, [?] a voice, Skr. vac to       say, to speak, G. erw[84]hnen to mention. Cf. {Advocate},       {Advowson}, {Avouch}, {Convoke}, {Epic}, {Vocal}, {Vouch},       {Vowel}.]       1. Sound uttered by the mouth, especially that uttered by             human beings in speech or song; sound thus uttered             considered as possessing some special quality or             character; as, the human voice; a pleasant voice; a low             voice.                         He with a manly voice saith his message. --Chaucer.                         Her voice was ever soft, Gentle, and low; an                      excellent thing in woman.                  --Shak.                         Thy voice is music.                           --Shak.                         Join thy voice unto the angel choir.   --Milton.          2. (Phon.) Sound of the kind or quality heard in speech or             song in the consonants b, v, d, etc., and in the vowels;             sonant, or intonated, utterance; tone; -- distinguished             from mere breath sound as heard in f, s, sh, etc., and             also whisper.          Note: Voice, in this sense, is produced by vibration of the                so-called vocal cords in the larynx (see Illust. of                {Larynx}) which act upon the air, not in the manner of                the strings of a stringed instrument, but as a pair of                membranous tongues, or reeds, which, being continually                forced apart by the outgoing current of breath, and                continually brought together again by their own                elasticity and muscular tension, break the breath                current into a series of puffs, or pulses, sufficiently                rapid to cause the sensation of tone. The power, or                loudness, of such a tone depends on the force of the                separate pulses, and this is determined by the pressure                of the expired air, together with the resistance on the                part of the vocal cords which is continually overcome.                Its pitch depends on the number of a[89]rial pulses                within a given time, that is, on the rapidity of their                succession. See Guide to Pronunciation, [sect][sect] 5,                146, 155.          3.
