Prepositions

Prepositions are something that gets me in languages I don't know well. Every language seems to use them differently, and there's rarely a hard and fast rule for exactly when each preposition is used. Sometimes many can be used, but only one sounds right. You get the idea. I have made some prepositions in Reisu, and I plan to flesh them out more when I start translating more things. For now I have English equivalents for this the best I can.

With (using)Ja
During/Among/In (not inside)Pa
To/Towards/For/UntilLo
Apart/Away fromBi
At (a specific place/time)Le
Inside/BetweenPo
OfFe
Together/Along/WithGi
By (passive voice)Ba
