There are five different types of prepositions:

  1. Simple prepositions.
  2. Double prepositions.
  3. Compound prepositions.
  4. Participle prepositions.
  5. Phrase prepositions.

1) 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.

Some examples of common prepositions used in sentences are:

  • He sat on the chair.
  • There is some milk in the fridge.
  • She was hiding under the table.
  • The cat jumped off the counter.
  • He drove over the bridge.

Double Prepositions

Double prepositions are two simple prepositions used together, often indicating direction. Some examples are into, upon, onto, out of, from within.

  • Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess.
  • The baby climbed onto the table.
  • It is up to us to find the answer.
  • The loud noise came from within the stadium.
  • She never leaves without her phone.

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.

  • She sat across from Marie.
  • I attended the meeting on behalf of my company.
  • We were in the middle of the storm.
  • He has gym class in addition to his regular classes today.
  • He picked up the penny from beneath the couch.

Participle Prepositions

Participle prepositions have endings such as -ed and -ing. Examples are words such as considering, during, concerning, provided.

  • She is interested in anything concerning horses.
  • He works one job during the day and another at night.
  • The dog kept following him home.
  • All the neighbors were there including the new one.
  • The principal was asking questions regarding her behavior.

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.

  • I will get to the conference on time.
  • The baseball game was canceled after the heavy rain.
  • John found his homework under the bed.
  • The children loved the gifts from their grandparents.
  • He succeeded with a little help.
