Prepositions:-

• A Preposition is aword placed before a noun or noun equivalent to show in what relation the person or a thing denoted thereby stands to something else.
• The noun or noun equivalent is called the object of the Preposition.

Ex:-

I placed my book on the table.

Explanation:-

Here, if the word 'on' is omitted the sentence makes no sense. The hand might be placed on the table, or under the table, or above the table. Until some Preposition has been inserted, the relation between the hand and the table is not known.

In a Preposition, omission of an object takes place:

Non-omitted:- The man whom/that we were looking has came.

Omitted:- The man, we were looking has came.

Kinds of Prepositions:-

• Participle Prepositions.
• Compound Prepositions.

Participle Prepositions:-

• These are originally present or past participles used absolutely. Sometimes with the nouns expressed and sometimes with the noun understood.

Ex:-

Noun expressed:

Pending fresh orders.

Here, Fresh orders pending or not being given yet.

Some noun understood:

Considering your age, you have done well.

Here, it is considered as impersonal matter.

Compound Prepositions:-

• Two or more words habitually thrown together and ending with a simple Preposition may be called as compound Prepositions.

Ex:- Instead of, because of, in spite of etc.

So, some Prepositional words used are,

• But
• From
• Into
• To
• At
• With
• because
• of
• in
• on
• but
• Except etc.
