Give an example or a Object of Preposition?

Example of an Object of Preposition:

Sentence: The cat sat on the mat.

Object of Preposition: mat

Preposition: on

Explanation: The word "mat" is the object of the preposition "on" because it tells us where the cat sat.

Here are some other examples:

* In the garden, there are many beautiful flowers. (Object of preposition: garden)

* I walked to the store. (Object of preposition: store)

* The dog hid under the table. (Object of preposition: table)

Key points to remember:

* The object of a preposition is always a noun or pronoun.

* It follows the preposition and answers the question "what?" or "who?" after the preposition.

* It clarifies the relationship between the preposition and the rest of the sentence.
