Usage notes
The preposition can replace any other preposition and remain grammatically correct, albeit more ambiguous. It is usually clear what meaning is intended based on context.

It is most useful for prepositional phrases not involving a literal physical connection, and instead, the correct preposition in the source language is mandated by convention only:


 * "He bets on the horses." (He doesn't place his money on the physical body of the horse.)
 * "I typed it on the computer." (It was actually typed using the computer.)
 * "She'll be here in a minute." (She'll be here within or after a minute.)

Without context, Donu ĝin je mi could mean any of the following:
