Preposition of Places

ALULA 員工, 更新於 September 22, 2023

  • Prepositions are words that show the relationship of a noun or a pronoun to another word in the sentence.
  • Prepositions of place, such as "at", "in", "on", show the location of something.
  • We use prepositions before a noun or pronoun. This noun or pronoun is called the object of the preposition.
  • The preposition and the object of the preposition together are called a prepositional phrase.

A preposition is a word that shows the relationship of a noun (or a pronoun) to another word in the sentence.

For example, in the sentence, "There is a book on the table", "on" is the preposition.
