Hi Mike,

I'm sure the time schedule was a little more loose, so... it's a different case! :)

But whatever the answer, it would likely be the same for ancient Greek, and I think some Latin.

It is interesting. Does time (how it is conceived) have any connection to prepositional structures?

Kind regards,

Annalisa
