===Prepositions===
Prepositions are inflected, as in the ancestral Thensarian. The pronoun ''Sthána'' is not fused with the preposition, however.
''ful'' = 'around' (fulan, fulas, fula, fuli, fulam, fulad, fulac, fular)
The sequences ''le'' + ''an'' and ''de'' + ''an'' contract to ''len'' /ʟɛn/ and ''den'' /dɛn/.
The 1sg and 2sg forms of prepositions are stressed on the last syllable; all other forms have initial stress.

The Thensarian relativizer ''rin'' turned into a genitive marker: ''(an) schain ri Aodhàn'' (Aodhàn's friend). It can be omitted in casual Bhadhagha: ''schain Aodhàn''.

Prepositions inflect the same way as in Tíogall; however, 'we' forms tend to use ''-mh'' and 'it' forms tend to use ''-è''. ''ri'' uses the inflected forms of ''le'' (to): my = ''ri lion'', your = ''ri leis'', ... Casual Bhadhagha developed a new inflectional paradigm for ''ri'': ''rìon, rìs, riù, rì, rè, rìomh, rìoc, rìor, rìom''.
