Prepositions
Awkward little buggers. I hate them. Apart from when they are useful, which at the moment is not at all.....dratted items.
Does anyone have any idea what ladaa might mean in English? I am still trying to translate my text about the Gynaecology Unit and it is FULL (and I mean full) of this blasted preposition, which means, variously:
'At, by (place or time); in the presence of, in front of, before, with'
How very useful. It also means a lot of other things in different contexts, only I can't find the one I need. Gahhhh!!!
