In what position does one use antiguo?

[Zwarte Piet]

I know most adjectives are placed following the word it modifies, but in antiguo's case, I heard it goes before some words when it is meaning "ancient" and after when it is meaning "old". Can I get a confirmation on this?

Also, would you say the title...Que posiciono se usa "antigua"? (Couldn't get the accents)

and are there any other examples of words that follow this?

Gracias!

There is a pull-down menu marked 'Accents' just above the text input box. You can select your special characters from there.

Goeden avond Piet. Bent U Nederlands?

French has exactly the same construction: un professor ancien = an old teacher
un ancien professor = a former teacher

Een beetje. My vader was een Zuid-Afrikaner en hy het my wat Afrikaans geleerd.
