alexa lake 🕊️🌿 (nprofile…sldm) Declined languages can eliminate some or all prepositions, though, making for greater efficiency, and also making word order much less important.
If I have a text in Greek, and I need to make it fit to a particular melody in English, it's far easier to use Jacobean English, which has many more vestiges of declension, than to use modern English. I would imagine it would be even easier if our nouns had ever been fully declined.
