What to Focus On

  • Prepositions show relationship between words.
  • The noun or pronoun after a preposition is its object.

  • On is used for specific days and dates.
  • In is used with parts of the day and longer periods like months, years, decades, and seasons.
  • At is used with a specific point in time and mealtimes.

  • In is used with countries, cities, large towns, large spaces, and enclosed spaces.
