A preposition is an important part of the English language. It is used to show a relationship between the noun and pronoun in a sentence. A preposition must always be followed by a noun or pronoun in a sentence. It can never be followed by a verb.
There are many preposition examples that will make it easy to understand how the parts of a sentence fit together and how the rules apply when it comes to using a preposition in a sentence.
There are five different types of prepositions:
- Simple prepositions -Simple prepositions are words like at, for, in, off, on, over, and under. These common prepositions can be used to describe a location, time or place.
- Double prepositions - Double prepositions are two simple prepositions used together, often indicating direction. Some examples are into, upon, onto, out of, from within.
- Compound prepositions - Compound prepositions (or complex prepositions) consist of two or more words, usually a simple preposition and another word, to convey location. Some examples are in addition to, on behalf of, and in the middle of.
- Participle prepositions - Participle prepositions have endings such as -ed and -ing. Examples are words such as considering, during, concerning, provided.
- Phrase prepositions -Phrase prepositions (or prepositional phrases) include a preposition, an object, and the object's modifier. Examples include phrases like on time, at home, before class, and on the floor.
