ADP: adposition

Adpositions is a term that covers both prepositions and postpositions. Irish only has prepositions.

Regular prepositions

There are simple and compound prepositions in Irish.

• Simple: ag “at”, le; “with”; from “ó”
• Compound: os cionn “above”; i gcoinne “against”

Inflected prepositions

16 of the most common simple prepositions can be inflected to mark pronominal objects. These are referred to as pronominal prepositions or prepositional pronouns.

Examples

• agam “at me”
• leis “with him”
• uainn “from us”

Progressive aspectual phrases

The preposition “ag” is also used in conjunction with verbal nouns to form progressive aspectual phrases.

Examples

• ag rith “running”
• tá sí ag ithe “she is eating”
