propositional

/pɹˌɑpəzˈɪʃənəl/ adj

Relating to, or limited to, propositions.

Word Origin From Latin 'pro-' (forth) and 'ponere' (to place). A proposition is something put forth for consideration. Adding -al makes it an adjective. The same root gives us position, compose (place together), deposit (place down), oppose (place against), suppose (place under). The breakdown pro+posit+ion+al shows pro- (forth), posit (placed), -ion (noun), -al (adjective). So propositional is literally about something placed forth.
