Question

what is the prepositional phrase is this sentence? "She says that you can slip an old pair of socks on both hands and dust tables and blinds very quickly."

Answer 1

A prepositional phrase, just like how it sounds, is a phrase that contains a preposition and the object it modifies. Prepositions are words that depict position, such as below, after, on, above, etc.

The preposition in the sentence is "on", while the object it modifies is both hands. Thus, the prepositional phrase in this sentence is: on both hands.
