Bashny.Net
This part of the speech as prepositions in the English language plays a significant role, and sometimes works wonders. Joining the verbs, prepositions dramatically change their meaning, preceding a noun, urged them on cases, the objects move in space, indicate their location and more. Skillful use of prepositions - real mastery. Therefore, I put together the most basic of English prepositions and rules of their use.
