Postposition [Harari]

IPA: [le] Forms: -le [romanization]
Etymology: From Proto-Semitic *lV-. Some semantics borrowed are from Somali -leh (“with, owning”). The postpositional instead of prepositional use is also a Cushitic loan; it occurs in Ethiopian Semitic in general the more southern the isolect is, with Harari being the outer extreme of them all, having utterly abated the prepositional use of Proto-Semitic *lV-, left to the historical chronolect called “Old Harari”. Etymology templates: {{inh|har|sem-pro|*lV-}} Proto-Semitic *lV-, {{bor|har|so|-leh|t=with, owning}} Somali -leh (“with, owning”), {{bor|har|cus|-}} Cushitic, {{cog|sem-eth|-}} Ethiopian Semitic, {{m+|sem-pro|*lV-}} Proto-Semitic *lV- Head templates: {{head|har|postposition}} -ሌ (-le)
