Prepositions are used to modify nouns, verbs, or adjectives by expressing their spatial or temporal relations with one another
1.
Prepositions function within phrases to modify main verbs, nouns, or adjectives. They also express spatial and temporal relationships between parts of a sentence.
2. 1. Location: at, on, in: Prepositions differ according to the number of dimensions they refer to. We can group them into three classes using concepts from geometry: point, surface, and area/volume. a. Point: (at) Prepositions in this group indicate that the noun that follows them is treated as a point in relation to which another object is positioned. b. Surface: (on) Prepositions in this group indicate that the position of an object is defined with respect to a surface on which it rests. c. Area/Volume: (in) Prepositions in this group indicate that an object lies within the boundaries of an area or within the confines of a volume.

2. Direction: to, on(to), in(to): These prepositions express movement toward something. To, into, and onto correspond respectively to the prepositions of location at, in, and on. Each pair can be defined by the same spatial relations of point, line/surface, or area/volume. 3.Temporal relations: Prepositions also express how objects relate temporally. Prepositions can express a point in time or an extended time. a. On, at, and in are each used to express similar relations as their spatial counterparts. b. Since, by, for, and from-to are used to express extended time.
5. GT. oy J Ait Me 4 | a E A YAY, OG, UA IGANGA J G7 * Foris a personal and personally limiting preposition and expresses a proprietary relationship. Also, for refers to temporal duration (ex: | went to England for two weeks) and motivation. * To is a quantitative, directional preposition and should be used to explain the impersonal connection between objects.
6. 1. For: a. “Speak for myself.” Here for refers to motive and is personally limiting and proprietary. The emphasis is as follows: “I speak on my own behalf; no one else does it for me.” b. “This is my first time for a visit.” This sentence lays more stress on the personal motive for the visit. This preposition stresses the relationship between the visitor and the visitee. 2. To: “Speak to myself.” Here to explains the direction of the 3. Infinitives: “This is my first time to visit.” To visit is an infinitive not a preposition. This sentence lays stress on the action of the visit. An adverb could be added to inform the reader of the specific type of action (personal visit, professional visit . . . etc.).
