Prepositions

Prepositions of time, place and prepositional phrases.

Time and place

  • Time: at (time), on (day), in (month/year).
  • Place: at (point), on (surface), in (enclosed space).

Dependent prepositions

  • Some words take fixed prepositions: good at, afraid of, interested in, depend on.

Key idea

Prepositions show time and place, and many adjectives/verbs take fixed prepositions (good at, afraid of).

Remember

Learn dependent prepositions as fixed phrases: interested in, depend on.
