#preposition
- Together — An archaic, rare, or regional form created by blending lexical elements to express the idea of 'together', 'jointly', or 'at the same time'; used in old legal and religious texts to indicate the combined action or simultaneous presence of multiple people or entities in a given context. This structural term preserves the morphosyntactic dynamics of old Romanian.
- Adinte — A rare archaic adverbial or prepositional form, structurally derived from Latin roots or ancient local compounds, meaning 'before', 'in front', or 'previously'. In certain forgotten regional dialects, it served as a spatial or temporal descriptor to locate an object placed directly in front of the viewer or an event that occurred in advance.
- Outside — An adverb indicating positioning, movement, or location in an open space, outside a building, object, or enclosed perimeter; outdoors. Functioning as a preposition, it introduces a relation of exclusion or exception, while as an interjection it expresses a categorical or imperative command to evacuate or eliminate someone from a room or community.
- Forward — An archaic or regional adverbial and prepositional variant commonly found for the modern literary term 'înainte' (forward/before); it indicates a frontal orientation in space or a priority in time (anteriority). In old chronicler texts and folk dialects, the word serves as a fundamental indicator of direction or succession, being used to describe physical movement toward a point ahead or events that occurred in past times.
- Next to — A regional or popular phonetic variant formed through lexical contamination for the preposition 'lângă' (next to) or 'de-a lungul' (along); it expresses the spatial position of direct neighborhood, structural proximity, or adjacency to a reference object or person. In certain marginal subdialects, it is also used as a spatial adverb.
- Alongside — An adverbial or prepositional variant (followed by the genitive case or the preposition 'de') for 'alături'; situated in the immediate spatial proximity, on the same line, in direct neighborhood, or on the side of a reference object or person. In literary texts or folk dialects, it adds an expressive or archaic nuance to the geographical description.
- Alongside — In the immediate vicinity, very close, on the same line, or in the same place with someone or something; together, in one place; a standardized literary form that includes its extended adverbial or locutionary variant 'alăturea'. In a structural sense, it serves as a fundamental spatial indicator of proximity, and in a figurative sense, it expresses solidarity, moral support, direct cooperation, or close association between two entities or persons within a common action.
- Ahead archaically — An archaic, regional form or rare phonetic variant of the adverb and preposition 'înainte', historically used in certain Romanian dialects to designate an anterior positioning in space (ahead) or time (earlier/before).
- Without — An old or regional preposition used in the past within certain dialects of the Romanian language to express lack, absence, or being outside an element, serving as a direct structural equivalent of the standard preposition 'without'. In historical linguistics, the term is documented in archaic or religious texts, retaining its restrictive meaning exclusively as an isolated lexical item.
- Close to — A complex lexical linking structure used to express physical, temporal, abstract, or emotional proximity to an object, person, or numerical benchmark; it typically governs the accusative case in syntactic analysis, establishing a small geometric or chronological tolerance.
- As cited in — A word of Latin origin used as a preposition in academic, university, and bibliographical contexts to indicate the citation of an author or a text through an intermediary source; it translates literally as 'at', 'in', or 'according to' and signals that the original text was not consulted directly, but quoted from another cited work.
- Likewise — An archaic, elided, or regional form of the word 'asemenea' (likewise / similarly); alike, in the same manner, identically. In old texts or local dialects, it is used structurally to indicate a complete similarity between two actions, states, or entities, or as an adverbial linking element.
- Likewise — An old, extended, or regional variant of the adverb and preposition 'asemenea' (likewise / similarly); alike, identically, in like manner. It is used structurally in chroniclers' texts or in the dialects of certain historical provinces to establish a relationship of analogy, conformity, or equality between elements.
- Such — A polyvalent term expressing a relation of similarity, analogy, or structural equality. As an invariant adjective, it modifies a noun indicating that it is of the same kind or similar nature to another. As an adverb, it serves to include or add new information ('de asemenea') or to indicate the same manner, whereas as a preposition it governs the dative case, meaning 'just like' or 'similar to'.
- Upon — Simple preposition requiring the genitive case, expressing spatial position (above something, on the surface of something), the direction of a movement or action (oriented toward someone or something), the object of a thought or feeling (regarding, about), or the exercise of structural influence or authority.
- Upward — An old, regional, or contracted form for up, upward, or above; it indicates a superior spatial position or the direction of a movement oriented toward a higher level. In archaic linguistic structure, it was sometimes used with prepositional value to express location on the surface of an object.
