A prepositional phrase contains a preposition and the words that it modifies. The prepositional phrases and their functions in the sentences have been identified as follows:

  • (Adjective) The recipe book <em>on the kitchen floor </em>got full of grease.
  • (Adverb)  Shaun is still sore<em> from yesterday's practice.</em>
  • (Adverb)  <em>Before his exam,</em> Joe sharpened two pencils.
  • (Adjective) The bananas<em> in that basket </em>are ripe.
  • (Adjective) The text message <em>from Ron </em>said he'd be here soon.
  • (Adverb) Feeling adventurous, we went <em>to the new taco place.</em>

When prepositional phrases modify nouns, they act as adjectives but when they modify verbs they function as adverbs. Adverbs tell us when, how, where, and the manner of an action.

Adjectives provide further descriptions of nouns. In sentence 1 for instance, the prepositional phrase modifies the noun, 'book', therefore, it functions as an adjective.

In the second sentence, the prepositional phrase modifies the verb 'sore'. So, following this pattern, the prepositional phrases have been correctly matched.

What types of details should a draft of a research-based essay contain?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

You do want to paraphrase information. You want to make sure that you know essentially who said what.

You want to include the facts that relate to the topic. This is more to remind yourself what the facts are.

The quotations are always a good idea. You are making sure that your reader knows that you are not alone in what you think or if it is a quotation that requires a negative response, that is also good.

These are the three that you should check.
