Description:
The preposition 'fit' means in or inside. Its referent is inside its object. It usually takes a nominative noun phrase object - when used alone, it implies an antecedent or unmentioned referent which is its object. Derived as a term as 'fityn', it means the inside.
It can also be used as a sentence-level adverbial discourse particle with a sense like 'even' or 'including'.
Example:
Fit xut zu nux kilum, zu nox ikky perat falu e na toly.
Even if you fly, can can't arrive on time.
