Here are some examples of common prepositions:
* One syllable: on, in, at, to, from, by, for, with, of, up, down, off, out, over, under, through, around, across, into, onto, etc.
* Two syllables: above, below, beside, behind, before, within, without, among, between, towards, against, despite, during, except, etc.
While there are some longer phrases that function as prepositions, like "according to" or "in spite of", these are technically prepositional phrases, not single-word prepositions.
