What to Focus On

  • A preposition connects nouns or pronouns to other words in a sentence.
  • It shows relationships like position, time, or direction.
  • Prepositions are usually followed by a noun or pronoun, forming a prepositional phrase.
  • Prepositions of Place: in, on, under, behind, in front of, between, near, above, below
  • Prepositions of Time: at, on, in, before, after, during
  • Prepositions of Direction: to, from, into, out of, towards
  • Look for words that show location, time, or direction.
  • The preposition is followed by a noun or pronoun (object).
  • The group of words together is called a prepositional phrase.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Prepositions are just small words and not very important in a sentence.

You can use 'in', 'on', and 'under' interchangeably because they all talk about position.

'Behind' and 'in front of' mean the same thing.
