Rules for Prepositions

Prepositions are words that make relationship between words. They provide clues to make a link with the remainder of the sentence together. Given the importantance of their role, they do a lot of functions for preposition in the sentence. 

These rules tell us how the prepositions can be used, which prepositions are used when, and where the prepositions belong in the sentence. 

1. Pair Them Properly

Determine the preposition that are needed for sentence we use a tricky preposition. We face a problem in it is idioms and phrases dealing with preposition because day expressions are not the same as they literally mean.


Idioms and phrases are special kind of expressions that we have to memorize otherwise it may be a mistake in using them. The errors will be called prepositional error.



2. Look at the word that follows them

As you know after the preposition there is a noun. This noun or pronoun must be careful about. This noun is called the object of the preposition that follows it. It is is noted here that cannot be an object of a preposition. A noun after the preposition would be the object of the preposition.

 The example given below wheel clarify the matter.

The shoe was for the boy. This is a correct sentence because the preposition for here is followed by the noun boy. So boy here is the object of the preposition for. But if I say, the shoe was for walked. It would be wrong sentence because here the preposition for is used for the verb walked. A verb cannot be the object of a preposition so it is a wrong sentence.


3. Don't use them at the end of a Sentences

As you know ki position must be followed by a noun and it must have an object that's why they should not be placed at the end of a sentence. There are some exceptions where we place this preposition at the end of a sentence but this is in rare case.



4. If preposition is followed by a verb

If there is any verb after the preposition then the verb will take ING form. For example I am working for planning. As planning here is the object of preposition for that's why it takes ing form to make it a noun.
