 * Perhaps for Conjunction sense 12? Equinox ◑ 21:21, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * So the meaning of the prepositon FOR is different from the one in on trial for murder, which indicates that the charge is murdering; am I right? --Backinstadiums (talk) 23:04, 6 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes. You're on trial for (because of) murder. Equinox ◑ 09:53, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
