This research exposes the( distinct senses) and (primary sense) of the prepositions (Ta) and (Lægæl), based on (principled polysemy model); this model is presented within the Cognitive Linguistics framework in 2003 by ( Tyler and Evans). It determines both distinct senses and primary sense of prepositions.
In the beginning, the model and the concepts related to the main point of the research are defined.
After that according to the model criteria the distinct senses and primary sense are demonstrated.
The paper concludes that the Semantic network of preposition (ta), apart from the sense that (shows the end of place /time) which is the primary sense of that preposition, has (four) distinct senses as long as (one) cluster sense among them. The Semantic network of the preposition (Lægæl) conveys the sense of (together), which is considered the primary sense of that preposition, It has also (thirteen) distinctive senses, that are linked with the primary sense through (three) cluster senses.
