In grammatical use, a loan-translation of GreekΒ prothesis, literally “a setting before.” Old English usedΒ foresetnysΒ as a loan-translation of LatinΒ praepositio.

*Tell me about it! … /flicks ash… To be honest, Clicky, an ‘eadache I’m getting from that…*

If you’re still a little fuzzy on what a preposition is, Dear Reader, this may help…

*Expressing relationships between things temporally and spatially… /stubs butt… Interesting connections…*

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, Dear Reader, and have a Song ❀

  1. Hebrew β€œPe” means mouth.
    Pe is Peter, or Penis, because it is the SPOKEn word of the wheel or whirl’d. Pe is Pater, or father because HE gives testimony from his testicles. The seed that PAtterns. Words, swords, says this is that, above this, below that over here, over there, it’s Pater TIME that binds. Witness TESTIMONY of history. And it’s all a dream.

    1. As an outside observer, MJ, it seems like a portion of the US population experienced national emergency since the Des Res Prez was elected and it won’t end for them until he’s gone. We have a similar thing here with staunch Remainers following Brexit vote.

        Donald Tusk?!
        β€œThe “Tusk” is slang for penis, so the song is basically about sex. When Stevie Nicks heard the album was going to be called Tusk, she objected, but Mick Fleetwood really wanted to use the title, so he ignored her and she dropped the subject.”

        1. There won’t be a People’s Vote, or Losers’ Vote to give it its proper title. That’s why Tessie Jackboots is fighting so hard to flog her BRINO deal (BRexit In Name Only) to MPs…

  2. β€œBet” is house.

    2. MJ, I finally got round to watching ‘Stardust’ last night…
