Identify prepositions

key notes :

  • Prepositions are words that show the relationship between a noun (or pronoun) and other words in a sentence.
  • They often indicate direction, location, time, or method.

  • Here are some common prepositions:
    • In
    • On
    • At
    • Under
    • Over
    • Between
    • Above
    • Below
    • Through
    • With
    • About
    • For
    • To

  • Prepositions are usually followed by a noun or pronoun, which is called the object of the preposition.
  • Example: “The cat is on the table.”
    • “On” is the preposition, and “the table” is the object of the preposition.

  • To find prepositions in a sentence, look for words that describe where or when something is happening.
  • Ask questions like “Where is it?” or “When did it happen?”
  • Example: “The dog is under the porch.”
    • “Under” shows the location of the dog.

  • “The book is on the shelf.”
  • “She will meet us at the park.”
  • “The bird flew over the trees.”
  • “He hid behind the door.”
  • “We will go after lunch.”
