Many of the prepositions and articles already pertain to relations based on thought (in this the Chinese language has apparently not advanced that far culturally, or at least not far enough), but such particles play a totally subordinate role, only slightly more independent than that of prefixes and suffixes, inflections, and the like.
Hegel, The Science of Logic Well, ok then Hegel.
"I concede further that [the mind] cannot withdraw itself [from the body] whenever it is attached to a brain which is too soft or damp, as in children..."
Descartes, "Letter for Arnauld, 29 July 1648"

Martin Heidegger, Nietzsche Vol. I
Heidegger being his usual, totally clear and comprehensible self.
