English language has only prepositions, but in many Uralic languages there are mostly postpositions and very few prepositions. //Classical Black Speech// is considered similar to them in that feature, but //Debased Black Speech// is closer to English. [[Nûrlâm]] supposed to be in between these two opposite concepts of language.  **//Adpositions//** is the term combining //prepositions// and //postpositions// as they play similar role in the sentence.
