Preposition: A Preposition Is A Word That Connects A Noun or Pronoun To Another Word in The Sentence

A preposition is a word that connects a noun or pronoun to another word in a sentence. Prepositions show where things are located and help build longer, more descriptive sentences by using words like "over", "under", "below", "on", and "around". Prepositions also make sentences more interesting, help describe what is happening, and show where things go rather than leaving readers to guess, while following grammatical rules about where they can be placed in a sentence.

PREPOSITION

A preposition is a word that


connects a noun or pronoun to
another word in the sentence.
Prepositions are useful
• Prepositions show where things are. They help
in building sentences to make them longer and
more descriptive. Some examples are: Over,
Under, Below, On, and Around. There are many
more prepositions beside the ones I listed
Prepositions are interesting
• Prepositions make a boring sentence different.
It can turn “The car drove fast.” into “The car
drove fast on top of the bridge.”
• Prepositions help describe what is happening in
a sentence. They show where things go, instead
of having readers guess what is happening.
Prepositions and grammar
• Prepositions have a lot of rules when you use
them. They must be between a noun or pronoun
and another word that it links to. Also,
prepositions can’t be used to end a sentence. You
also can’t use prepositions when they aren’t
needed because the sentence is already clear and
understandable.
