When does a preverb cease being associated with the verb and, becoming a preposition, come to be associated with a noun instead? Or become an adverb?
In all seriousness, isn't the answer partly (if not wholly reflective) in how prefixes and suffixes become "fixed"?
BTW, I am fascinated with this discussion...it reminds me (alot) of music theory.
