"There are many unfamiliar terms for / to / with me."

I would not structure the sentence like that. I don't think there is any preposition you could use that would make that sentence sound natural. The problem is that terms disrupts the flow of the sentence when you put it between unfamiliar and the preposition.

  • I would not structure the sentence like that.
  • I don't think there is any preposition you could use that would make that sentence sound natural.
  • The problem is that terms disrupts the flow of the sentence when you put it between unfamiliar and the preposition.
  • I would say "Many [of the/these] terms are unfamiliar to me".
