There is an old saying that if a man has not fallen in love before forty, he had better not fall in love after. (Shaw) (adverb)

This letter seemed to afford her peculiar satisfaction; she read it through twice before replying to the landlady. (Mansfield) (preposition)
Though identical in form, adverbs, prepositions, and conjunctions are different parts of speech. The adverb, unlike the preposition and conjunction, serves as part of the sentence; e. g. after is an adverbial modifier of time etc.
§ 5. Some prepositions (on, in, by, over, off, up) are homonymous with postpositions.
A preposition as well as a postposition does not perform any independent function in the sentence. But while a preposition denotes the relation between objects and phenomena, a postposition is part of a composite verb.
A preposition is not usually stressed, while a postposition usually bears the stress.
We've got to live on what we earn. (Cronin) (preposition)
He liked Erik more than any of the assistants the department had taken on in a long time, as much as he could like one of the younger men. (Wilson) (postposition)

§ 2. According to their morphological structure conjunctions are divided into the following groups:
(1) Simple conjunctions (and, or, but, till, after, that, so, where, when, etc.).
Some of the simple conjunctions are homonymous with prepositions, adverbs, and pronouns.
(2) Derivative conjunctions (until, unless etc.).
(3) Compound conjunctions (however, whereas, wherever etc.). These conjunctions are few.
(4) Composite conjunctions (as well as, as long as, in case, for fear (that), on the ground that, for the reason that etc.).
Some conjunctions are used in pairs (correlatively): both... and, either ... or, not only ... but (also), neither ... nor, whether ... or.
