12 o'clock: The most literal meaning, to erect or post. This meaning can even be extended to include the idea of publishing in the internet: "He put up a post about the state of the global economy." Offer would be in the following sense: "They put up quite a fight, but they were ultimately defeated."
3 o'clock: in the sense of giving some one lodging, here the object goes in between the two parts of the phrasal verb. "She was kind enough to put me up for the night."
9 o'clock: To be used with the preposition 'with', in Spanish, 'aguantar'; "I can't put up with the way the cost of living is continually rising." The last few words there - digest, brook, bear and abide
