Here's how it works:
* Preposition: A word that shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun (the object) and another word in the sentence.
* Object of the Preposition: The noun or pronoun that comes *after* the preposition.
Example:
"The cat sat on the mat."
* Preposition: on
* Object of the preposition: the mat
Here are some more examples:
* "I went to the store." (Object of the preposition: the store)
* "She walked around the park." (Object of the preposition: the park)
* "He gave the book to me." (Object of the preposition: me)
Important Note:
* The object of the preposition can be a single word, a phrase, or even a clause.
* The object of the preposition can also be a pronoun, as in the third example above.
I hope this makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions.
