In my (as of yet unnamed) conlang, adpositions are marked directly on the
verb or noun, so there is no ambiguity (well, there is some, but that is
unrelated).
Ngjotra Dodabjo'nfretib.
Ngjo-tra Doda-ba-jont-Freti-b
Eat-I-past fruit-over-touching-table-acc.
(I eat the fruit that is on the table)
Ngjobjo'nfretitra Dodab.
Ngjo-ba-jont-Freti-tra Doda-b.
Eat-over-touching-table-I-past fruit-acc..
(I eat the fruit while I am on the table)
