GRAMMAR LESSON / PREPOSITIONS
Prepositions are a closed class of words. A preposition links nouns, pronouns and phrases to other words in a sentence. The word or phrase that the preposition introduces is called the object of the preposition. A preposition usually locates its object in space or in time. This is why we talk about PREPOSITIONS of place and PREPOSITIONS of time.
Prepositions of place tell us where something is or happens:
on the sofa
under the bed
We use PREPOSITIONS of time to tell us when something happens:
at Christmas
in July
Some words are often followed by the same prepositions:
listen to
succeed in
Some verbs take a preposition to make a new verb. These are called phrasal verbs:
put up with
hand out
