Simple preposition

Definition with Examples :

Simple prepositions are the short words used to determine a relation between nouns, pronouns or even to join parts of a clause or sentence. Some examples of simple preposition are- on, over, at, under, by etc. We will form simple sentences using these prepositions to better understand their use.
