This document provides an introduction and overview of prepositions. It begins by introducing the group members and their roles. The goals are then stated as explaining the meanings of significant words, being able to identify and recognize prepositions, and writing excellent paragraphs using appropriate prepositions. An introduction defines prepositions as linking nouns, pronouns, and phrases to other words, always preceding their object and indicating a temporal, spatial, or logical relationship. Key points are that prepositions always indicate a relationship and must have a subject and verb before them followed by a noun, not a verb. Commonly used prepositions are discussed and it is noted that prepositions are important as they mark structural relationships in sentences.

5. ● There are many thousands of different words in the English
language, but there are only eight different kinds of words.
● These eight kinds, which are called “parts of speech,” are the
noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the verb, the adverb, the
preposition, the conjunction, and the interjection.
● In this module, we will study these parts of speech from their
definitions, classes/kinds, functions in the sentence and their
significance

to the rest of the sentence as in the following examples: The laptop is on
the study table.
(“On” is the preposition and the “study table” is the object of the
preposition)
PREPOSITIONS

7. Prepositions are always used to
indicate the relationship of a noun or
phrase to something else.
When using a preposition, you must
always have the subject and verb
before it, and follow it with a noun.
You should never follow it with a
verb!

structure of a sentence; they mark special
relationships between persons, objects, and locations
