how many types of prepositions are there
Answers
Explanation:
There are five different types of prepositions:
1.Simple prepositions.
2.Double prepositions.
3.Compound prepositions.
4.Participle prepositions.
5.Phrase prepositions.
Simple Prepositions are the basic or fundamental words which aren't formed from any other words and which are used to denote place, time, etc. of the actions.
Compound Prepositions are generally formed by adding prefixes (such as 'a' which means 'not', 'be' which means 'by') to simple Prepositions.
Phrasal Prepositions are the Prepositions formed by grouping one or more prepositions with some other words.
Barring, Concerning, considering, during, notwithstanding, pending, regarding, respecting, touching, and a few similar words which are present participles of verbs, are used absolutely without any noun or pronoun being attached to them. For all practical purposes, they have become Prepositions, and are sometimes distinguished as Participial Prepositions.
