A prepositional phrase is a phrase that has a preposition, and the object of the preposition (a noun, pronoun, gerund, or clause) and, it may have a modifier of the object (E.g. the). A subject is never part of a prepositional phrase, and this type of phrase can work as an adjective or an adverb.

As an adverb, the prepositional phrase answers the questions How? When? or Where. And as an adjective, it answers the question Which one?

10. The classes were all held <u>in the morning.</u>

<em>In: Preposition; the: modifier of the object; morning: object. </em>

<em>The prepositional phrase works as an adverb and it modifies the verb "held".</em>

11. Work began promptly <u>at nine o’clock. </u>

<em>At: Preposition; nine o'clock: object. The prepositional phrase works as an adverb and it modifies the verb "began" </em>

12. The students found the illustrations <u>of the problem</u> interesting and helpful.

<em>Of: Preposition; the: modifier of the object; problem: object. The prepositional phrase works as an adjective and it modifies the noun "the illustrations"  </em>

13. Teachers located materials <u>on different topics. </u>

<em>On: Preposition; different topics: object. The prepositional phrase works as an adverb and it modifies the verb "located" </em>

14. Classes<u> like these</u> kept the students busy.

<em>Like: Preposition; these: object. The prepositional phrase works as an adjective and it modifies the noun "Classes".</em>

The English language begins with the Anglo-Saxons.  The Romans, who had controlled England for centuries, had withdrawn their troops and most of their colonists by the early 400s.  Attacks from the Irish, the Picts from Scotland, the native Britons, and Anglo-Saxons from across the North Sea, plus the deteriorating situation in the rest of the Empire, made the retreat a strategic necessity.  As the Romans withdrew, the Britons re-established themselves in the western parts of England, and the Anglo-Saxons invaded and began to settle the eastern parts in the middle 400s.  The Britons are the ancestors of the modern day Welsh, as well as the people of Britanny across the English channel.  The Anglo-Saxons apparently displaced or absorbed the original Romanized Britons, and created the five kingdoms of Northumbria, Mercia, Kent, East Anglia, Essex, Sussex, and Wessex (see map below).  Notice that the last three are actually contractions of East Saxon, South Saxon, and West Saxon, and that the Welsh still refer to the English as Saxons (Saesneg).
