 *''For a list of Gaelic prepositions see the page [[Prepositions]]''
-One rare property of Gaelic prepositions is that they inflect for [[person (definition)|person], [[Number (definition)|number]] and [[Gender (definition)|gender]] when they take a pronoun as an object. In English you use two words: the preposition and the pronoun "to me", in Gaelic this is all bundled into one word "dhomh". Inflected prepositions never take a full object pronoun. So "*dhomh mi" is not well-formed. In addition, many of the prepositions take special forms when coming before an [[article (definition)|article]]. For example, to say "from the", we use the form "bhon" (although ''bhon an'' is also possible). Similarly  the preposition le becomes leis before the article. These two kinds of inflection are summarized in the first chart below. Much rarer (but frequently used in certain [[Aspect|aspectual]] constructions) are forms of the preposition that inflect for a [[Possessive Pronoun|possessive pronoun]]. For example, to say "at my" we don't say "aig mo", instead " 'gam " is used. The inflection of the prepositions for possessive pronouns is given in the second chart.

 Complex Prepositions that end in a simple preposition such as '''còmhla ri'''  are inflected just like the simple preposition. Complex prepositions that end in a noun (and govern the genitive case) such as ''air muin'' are inflected differently. They are inflected uses in the [[Possessive Pronouns]], so "on top of him" would be ''air a mheasg''.
