What part of speech is with?

"With" can be a few different parts of speech depending on its role in the sentence:

* Preposition: This is the most common use of "with." It shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another element in the sentence.

* Example: "He went to the park with his dog." ("With" shows the relationship between "He" and "his dog.")

* Adverb: "With" can sometimes modify a verb or adjective, telling us how or in what manner something is done.

* Example: "She answered the question with confidence." ("With" modifies "answered" by indicating how she answered.)

* Conjunction: "With" can join two parts of a sentence, often showing a simultaneous action or a relationship between two things.

* Example: "I ate my dinner with my friends." ("With" joins the actions of "ate" and "friends.")
