Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to analyze the use of the grammatical case category in German and Polish in a manner inconsistent with the binding norm. With regard to German, based on real-life examples, utterances have been examined in which the non-normative use of the verbal and prepositional case has been found. The analysis shows that there is a considerable uncertainty in the use of the case among the speakers of German (the dative instead of the genitive, the nominative instead of the accusative, the genitive instead of the dative), which in future may cause permanent changes in the language. In Polish, a clear tendency has been observed to replace the genitive with the accusative, especially after a sentential negation.
