1. Prefixes

A "prefix" is a word that is added at the beginning of a word.

Many prefixes are prepositions that have a "pre position" in a word order.

2. Prepositions

A preposition is a word that has a "pre position" in a word order. That word was coined by an ancient Greek as Greek had no "postpostitions".

Details are left as a future topic.

A more general term is "adposition"

In English, a "postposition" is not encouraged. Using a "postposition" is something I would not think of.

3. Prefix links
