'Apud' is a Latin preposition that translates to 'at' or 'by' and is commonly used with the accusative case. It indicates location or proximity and often conveys a sense of being next to or in the presence of someone or something. Its use in conjunction with the accusative case emphasizes the direct object being approached or referred to, while it can also take the ablative case when expressing a more abstract relationship with a location or time.
