Question

define preposition with two examples

Answer 1

A preposition is a word used to link nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other words within a sentence. They act to connect the people, objects, time and locations of a sentence.  Prepositions are usually short words, and they are normally placed directly in front of nouns. In some cases, you’ll find prepositions in front of gerund verbs.

two examples are:

I prefer to read in the library.

He climbed up the ladder to get onto the roof.

Answer 2

Prepositions are the words that are placed before a noun and pronoun to show its relation to some other word in the sentence.

Example: The aeroplane flew ✨over ✨the mountains

over- shows the relation between the noun 'aeroplane' and the noun ' mountains'

Ayesha is very friendly ✨ with ✨us.

with - show the relation between the adjective 'friendly' and the pronoun 'us'
