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>

emmasim [6.3K]
  • "I would explain to him that while collecting coins is his hobby, I have other hobbies of my own which includes hiking and bike racing.

  • I do not find the collection of coins as a fun thing to do in my pass time as it does not pump my adrenaline the way bike racing and hiking does.

  • I am sure that my father would understand my decision to follow what makes me happy, the same way he does what makes him happy, which  is collecting coins."

  • The above is the template that you can use to write your essay to make your argument as to why you cannot do what your father wants you to do.

Hi, I need help on this. I have no idea how to do it. Please help me... I need to submit this tonight.
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

When I was on my way home I tried to cross a busy road while standing by the road I met an old man, and I can clearly see that he might have problems crossing this busy road. So I decided to talk to the old man and offer my help, and at the same time assure him that he will be safe if he walks through with me he simply responded not to worry about him as he has crossed this road many times before, while slightly disappointed I realized that it’s better that he knows how to cross the road by himself in case people wouldn’t have been as courteous as I was.
