.
Tears flowed down her cheeks.
.
He kissed me on the cheek.
.
Her cheeks turned red.
.
The old man had pale cheeks.
.
The wind touched my cheek.
Note the -n on after in the first example: motion onto a surface takes the accusative, rest on it does not. is tears running down onto the cheeks; is them simply sitting there. This is the single most useful thing the accusative does beyond marking objects, and cheeks are as good a place to drill it as any. A slap on the cheek is a vangofrapo, one of those transparent compounds Esperanto builds without ceremony.
