Level 10 = Preposition _ Prepositional Phrase _ 2

 

Prepositional Phrase _ 2

Prepositional phrases consist of two basic parts: the preposition and the object. The object can be a noun, pronoun, or gerund. In prepositional phrases, prepositions are almost always followed by an object. Sometimes prepositional phrases will function as adjectives.

Prepositional Phrases as Adjectives

Like basic adjectives, adjective prepositional phrases modify or describe a noun. They answer the questions like "which one?" and "what kind?"; however, unlike basic adjectives which go before the noun, adjective prepositional phrases come after the noun.
