"prepositional phrases."
two and threeword prepositions: along with, because of, next to,

3. A prepositional phrase is a group of words that begins with a preposition (a word
like "in," "from," "of," "with," "for", "to," and ends with a noun, a pronoun, or a word
group serving as a noun) called the object of the preposition. Examples:

several other places in a sentence. Examples:
