What is the prepositional phrase in this sentence The little girl with red hair Jane?

The prepositional phrase in the sentence "The little girl with red hair Jane" is "with red hair".

Here's why:

* Prepositional phrases start with a preposition (like "with," "on," "at," etc.) and end with a noun or pronoun (the object of the preposition).

* In this case, "with" is the preposition, and "red hair" is the object of the preposition.

The sentence is a bit odd because "Jane" is likely intended to be the girl's name, but it's not grammatically clear. A more standard way to write this sentence would be "The little girl with red hair, Jane," or "The little girl named Jane has red hair."
