Japanese term or phrase: 後置格
This is an Indonesian course description from a university website.

The term is grammatical element which exists in Indonesian, but I can't pinpoint the English name for the term. The sentence is as follows:

動詞との関わりで後置詞、後置格についても実践的に学ぶ。

The term before it is postposition. 格　is 'case' as far as I'm aware.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Nick
