Prepositions List
Prepositions connect nouns, pronouns, and phrases with other words in a sentence. They give information about location, direction, space, or time. Prepositions are usually part of a phrase because they often have a noun or pronoun after them. Here are two examples of prepositions in sentences.
The cow jumped over the moon. I will go to the doctor.
There are about 150 prepositions in English. Yet this is a very small number when you think of the thousands of other words (nouns, verbs etc). Prepositions are important words. We use individual prepositions more frequently than other individual words. In fact, the prepositions of, to, and in are among the ten most frequent words in English!
