A supraposition would presumably look like David's tonal clitic. As for a
transposition, a hypothetical case might go like this (vaguely
Semitic-inspired):
malak "king"
melke "to the king"
malak bayat "king of the house"
malak beyte "to the king of the house"
If any natlang does the equivalent, I shall be duly impressed.
