It has two and a half.
The two are nominative (the pig) and possessive (the pig's.) The
half is objective which only applies to four pronouns, I/me, he/him, she/her, they/them.
The other two pronouns have the same objective form it/it, you/you.
Possessive case is extremely regular other than the six pronouns.
We overcompensate with a vast number of verb forms and irregular verbs ("He would have been thought foolish.")

In slightly older English (but later than Shakespeare), you still see the
difference between ye/you and thou/thee.
> Possessive case is extremely regular other than the six pronouns.
Dialectally less regular than you might think.
he/his/him
she/her/her
it/its/it
they/their/them
I/mine/me
thou/thine/thee
we/our/us
ye/your/you
_my_ and _thy_ actually arise from the *dropping* of the (phonologically) final
-n before consonants, which was later generalized to all contexts; in the older
language, "my own" was "mine own", for example.
Dialectally, the final -n was *generalized*, so that forms like _hisn_, _hern_,
and _yourn_ occur in speech. (Part of my childhood in Texas was spent with
people who said things like "This one is mine, and that one is yourn.")
Similarly, the predicate forms _hers_ and _yours_ arise from a generalization
of the final -s of _his_ and _its_ along with the general -s of nouns.

People not aware of that think that there was an english word called `Ye' as in `Ye Inn'.. Old West of Ireland gypsies (travellers) used a dialect close to what Shakespear used. Many Quakers moved to Ireland and used `thee' and 'thou' which Irish people thought amusing. Perfectly legitimate English words, AFAIK. As nonconformists, they worked in the milling industry -- greymausg@mail.com

He who sells what isn't hisn
Must buy it back or go to prison.
I was informed by a Texan that "y'all" is singular.
The plural is "all y'all".
I once made a support call to Dallas. The lady at the
other end said, "We're getting a funny error message,
and we wondered if it was from y'all's system."
I'd never heard it used in the possessive before.

Apparently different areas of Texas use it differently. I was taught that y'all is singluar or plural, depending on context. I never heard of all y'all until about 1995.

German seems to use fewer verb tenses. English is fussier about past, past
perfect, etc.

The canonical example is a captain for the Danube Steamship Company: Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitan I figured that a cosmic ray research rocket launching area would be: Weltraumstrahlungforschungsraketenflugplatz We shouldn't be too smug, though - there is an increasing tendency in English (primarily among marketroids, especially at Virgin Galactic) to run words together - camelCaps are optional, but are a reliable indicator of marketing jargon. -- /~\ Charlie Gibbs | "Some of you may die, \ / <cgibbs@kltpzyxm.invalid> | but it's a sacrifice X I'm really at ac.dekanfrus | I'm willing to make." / \ if you read it the right way. | -- Lord Farquaad (Shrek)
