This is a list of English prepositions. Many English prepositions are compounds of bare roots and affixes such as a-, be-, -side, -st, giving English a relatively high number of morphemically distinct prepositions. However, these processes are no longer productive, and many of these prepositions have fallen out of use, or become limited to a certain dialect. English prepositions generally remain a closed class. ==Single words== # a, an (''meaning "per"'') # aboard # about # * 'bout, bout (''abbreviations'') # above # * bove (''archaic'') # abreast # abroad # absent (''law'') # across # * cross (''archaic'') # adjacent (''US, rare'') # after # against # * 'gainst, gainst (''poetic or archaic''); again, gain (''archaic'') # along # * 'long (''abbreviation''), alongst (''archaic'') # alongside # amid # * amidst, mid, midst (''poetic or archaic''); # among # * amongst (''poetic or archaic'') # * 'mong, mong, 'mongst (''abbreviations'') # apropos (''rare for apropos of'') # apud (''formal'') # around # * 'round, round (''abbreviations'') # as # astride # at # * @ (''abbreviation'') # atop, ontop # bar # before # * afore, tofore (''dialectal or archaic'') # * B4 (''abbreviation'') # behind # * ahind (''dialectal or archaic'') # below # * ablow, alow (''Scotland'') # beneath # * 'neath, neath (''poetic'') # beside # besides # between # * atween (''dialectal or archaic'') # beyond # * ayond (''dialectal or archaic'') # but # by # chez (''rare'') # circa # * c., ca.
