 Some Glosists have insisted that u(n)/plu should be deleted after prepositions. The rule is MAY be deleted (really not a rule at all). Using u(n)/plu helps to determine the number of the noun following it.  I believe the confusion came from a misunderstanding of the way Hogben deleted these words. A careful analysis of the way he deleted them shows that he deleted u(n) after prepositions and verboids, never plu . In this way, accuracy of number is preserved. Hogben never formulated this as a grammar rule. If you do not use verboids (most Glosists don't), please use u(n)/plu  after the verb to separate it from the object.  Do what YOU want, develop your own style of Glosa.

Suddenly, with a loud huzza, a little cloud of pirates leaped from the woods on the north side and ran straight on the stockade. _U mikro grega ex plu mari klepto-pe ko mega voka pa akti subito salta ex dendro-fa lo nordi latu, e akti dromo tako a mura. Four had made good their footing inside our defences... _Tetra ex mu pa gene es ad-in imuni loka de na.

 20. Silver's Embassy         _20. Un Ofere de Silva "Cap'n Silver, sir, to come on board and make terms," he shouted. _An pa dice fo-soni, "Navi cefa Silva, andro, pro ki in navi e face akorda." "My man," said Captain Smollett, "I have not the slightest desire to talk to you. If you wish to talk to me, you can come..." _Navi cefa Smolet pa dice, "Andro, mi este nuli desira de dice ko tu. Si tu volu dice ko mi, tu pote ki proxi." Then he advanced to the stockade, threw over his crutch, got a leg up, and with great vigour and skill succeeded in surmounting the fence... _Po-co Silva pa ki a mura, bali auxi baci trans id, moti mo poda de se a supra, e per mega resista e tekno moti se trans mura. He was tricked out in his best; an immense blue coat, thick with brass buttons... _An pa habe boni vesti epi se: u mega ciano toga ko poli kupra-zinka butona.
