Prepositions
A preposition is a word used to link nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other words within a sentence. Prepositions are usually short words, and they are normally placed directly in front of nouns. In some cases, you’ll find prepositions in front of gerund verbs.
Preposition | Use | Examples |
between | \(1\). to refer to two things which are clearly separated \(2\). when naming individual items (\(2,3\), or more) | Our house is between the mountains and the sea. Switzerland lies between France, Germany, Austria and Italy. |
among | when the items are part of a group | I’m trying to decide among these shirts. |
before | earlier than a certain point of time | Can you call me back before 5 pm, please? |
behind | at the back of somebody/something | The teacher was standing behind me. |
during | period of time (within the period) | Nobody spoke during the presentation. |
for | \(1\). reason or purpose \(2\). length of time (how long the action lasts) | This gift is for you. It rained during the night for two hours. |
