Difference between revisions of "Le (preposition)"

Revision as of 11:45, 31 July 2012

le means with or sometimes by

bare form: le 'with a' definite form: leis an 'with the'

Like most prepositions, air can be inflected for person, number, and gender. For example, to say "on me", we use the single word orm.

Special emphatic forms are used if we want to emphasize the pronoun in the inflected preposition. (e.g. ormsa "on **me**")

Note: lem is used instead of an "len" in front of words beginning with the labial consonants <m, b, p, f>
