Prepositions

Prepositons are sometimes called location words. Here are a few examples:


	about		after		at

	beneath		by		during

	in		on		over

	under		upon		with

Here are a few prepositions used in sentences.

  They played in the snow.

  The glacier was on the mountain.

  The ice was beneath the rock.

As you can see in these examples, the preposition helps to explain the relationship between words in the sentence. Here are a few more examples which don't deal with location.

  The vapor looked like a small cloud.

  The peach rolled until it hit the wall.

  Everyone was happy except for Harry.

These sentences use prepositions which do not deal with location, but they still help to explain the relationship between the other words in the sentences.
