alatt, under, (of time: within)	$\scriptstyle {\left.{\begin{matrix}\ \\\\\ \\\ \\\ \ \end{matrix}}\right\}\,}$	Denote a place of rest, or a point of time.
után, after
iránt, against, towards
előtt, before, in front of
között, between, among
mellett, by the side of	$\scriptstyle {\left.{\begin{matrix}\ \\\ \end{matrix}}\right\}\,}$	Denote rest, and position.
megett, behind.
nélkül, without (not having).
helyett, instead, in place of.
miatt, végett, on account of (giving a reason).

The dependent postpositions are:—

kívül, outside, besides.		belül, within.
alúl, below, lower down (in a vertical direction).
fölül, above, higher, further up (in a vertical direction).
túl, beyond.		közel, near, nigh.

Before közel the substantive takes the suffix -hoz or -hez; before the rest -an, -en, or after a vowel -n.

All dependent postpositions can take the suffixes for direction, -ról, -ről, and the English rendering would be as given above with the preposition "from" before each.

With the personal suffixes, only kívül may be inflected, and is then to be rendered in English with "besides" and the respective pronoun; as:—

i.e., the mouse fears the cat, shuns it, and therefore takes to flight as soon as she finds herself before the cat.
