Shirley Vásquez
ADJECTIVES FOLLOWED BY PREPOSITIONS
Specific prepositions are used after certain adjectives.
There is no definite rule to ascertain which preposition should be used
with which adjective.
Adjectives are used in simple sentences to describe people and
objects.
Example:
she is an interesting speaker.
More complex sentences use adjectives + prepositions to make
statements about a person's attitude towards something.
Example:
she is excited about the concert tonight. .
PREPOSITION RULES
There are 2 major rules when it comes to the use of
prepositions.
 The first major rule deals with preposition choice. Certain
prepositions must follow certain words, and the correct
preposition must be used to make relationships between
words in the sentences clear.
 The second major rule deals with the prepositions place in
the sentence. Prepositions must be followed by nouns, and
prepositions can only go on the end of the sentence in
certain situations.
 The adjective usually goes before the preposition
EXAMPLE:
due, similar to
This picture
is similar
to the one in
our living room.
Adjectives and prepositions are commonly used in
phrases.
THE USE OF PREPOSITION “TO” ON ADJECTIVES
Use with to usually referring to:
 SIMILARITY: close, equal, identical, related,
similar
Example: His painting is similar to Van Gough.
 MARRIAGE: married, engaged
Example: Jack is engaged to Jill
 LOYALTY: dedicated, devoted, loyal
Example: He was dedicated to his job.
 RANK: junior, senior
Example: John requested some help to his senior.
