Different ways to poner something in Spanish

Prependers take a simple stem like, poner - to put, and create 30 different methods to put something, before,after, next with, without and so on using prependers to take each simple stem and create a compound word.  Sometime two prependers are stuck together.

When Latin and Greek began butting these prependers up together in the written grammar, they lost a few rules of grammar. They left out the position phrasing in the standard vernacular poetry. In that process, the prependers began to have generalized meaning, a lost of specificity.
