Answer:

Preposition is a word governing, and usually preceding, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element in the clause, as in ‘the man on the platform’, ‘she arrived after dinner’, ‘what did you do it for ?’.

Answer 2

Prepositions are usually words indicating the position or place of the object.

Under indicated the position where it is sitting and hence is a preposition. To identify them we can ask the question 'Where?' Eg. On, in, beside, beneath etc.
