Prepositions

A preposition is a word used to connect nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other words within a sentence. They act as "directional signs," helping you understand the relationship between different people, places, and objects.

Essentially, prepositions tell you where something is or when something is happening.

Direction: They show the movement of something.
