Coined by George R. R. Martin in the book A Game of Thrones.
Pronunciation
Preposition
mra (contracts to mr' before a word beginning with a vowel)

Creation and Usage Notes
I'm not happy with how this turned out. I misremembered what I planned at an early stage and ended up getting stuck with a wonky prepositional system in Dothraki where major prepositions are assigning the nominative case. See anha for more info on that.
