Prepositions are functional words that show location, direction or time. Prepositions include words like:

  • to
  • of
  • under
  • for
  • at

Examples:

  • I saw the bowl on the table.
  • Take that book to the library.
  • We will arrive at seven o'clock.
  • Sierra left her wallet on top of the dresser.
  • Jeff fell asleep during the television show and missed the ending.
  • Sheryl's house is near the park, so we can walk from there.

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day!
