Prepositions:
Prepositions in English can be invariable words or groups of words that are used to
indicate relationships of place, movement, direction or time. Some prepositions can
have more than one use, such as in, at and on that are used to indicate place or
time. Prepositions have many peculiarities. For example, there are words that can be
used as a preposition or conjunction (such as after or until), or as a preposition or
adverb (inside and outside are clear examples), and of course they are used to form
the well-known phrasal verbs.ABA English offers you a complete English grammar
course consisting of 144 video classes in which our teachers clearly explain all
grammar topics and our interactive grammar section that you can consult in a similar
way to a grammar dictionary.
Grammar tells us the different elements that we find in a language and how they are
combined correctly when speaking or writing. Learning to use prepositions is
fundamental in learning English grammar. The rules for using them are very clear but
in the case of words that are used as prepositions, the list includes more than a
hundred, so it is common to learn them little by little, starting with those most
commonly used in English courses for beginners. Then more prepositions will be
incorporated as the vocabulary expands, also including phrases that are used as
prepositions.Some general rules for using prepositions:In general, prepositions in
English are followed by a noun phrase or a pronoun.Commonly, in English
prepositions are placed after adjectives.In general, in formal English a preposition is
never placed at the end of a sentence.Some nouns are always followed by a
particular preposition.The ABA English course is designed to learn English intuitively,
using our natural ability to learn languages, but each unit of the course has a clear
grammatical foundation on which the rest of the content is built (ABA Films, video
classes, exercises ), and of course we attach great importance to teaching the
meanings and uses of prepositions in English from beginners to more advanced
levels.
Prepositions Movement's:
The prepositions of movement and position are used to “help” the verbs of
movement to express where it is going. The most common prepositions are to,
down, into, around, off, over… in this post we are going to review some problematic
cases.Downloadable guide: Spanish mistakes in English and how to avoid them.
Across
overAcross is translated by “along” and over by “on”, however in some cases one or
the other can be used interchangeably with the same meaning.
We can use across or over to talk about a position that is on the other side of
something or for something that is moving to the other side of a road, a bridge, a
river, a border, etc.
-I am moving to a new house across / over the river.
-The police car followed them across / over the bridge.
When we refer to going over something like a fence or a wall that is longer than high
to reach the other side, we usually use over instead of across.
-The door was locked, so I have jumped over the fence.
However, when we speak of a surface that we imagine as flat, or an area such as a
country or a sea, it is preferable to use across
-I saw Susan across the dancefloor.
It takes a whole month to go across the Atlantic in a cargo ship.
Along, throughAlong is usually translated as "along" and through as "through", but
as in the previous case, they can be equivalent in some cases. Let's see how to
decide when to use one or the other.
When we speak of a movement along a line, like a road, a river, etc. we use along
-We rode along a path until we arrived to the cottage.
Instead, we use through to emphasize that we move through three-dimensional
space.He pushed his way through the crowd until he was on the first row.
Through also expresses a movement that crosses the entire space of which we
speak, from one extreme to the other.
-She walked through the forest to get back home.
Along, Through
Along is usually translated as "along" and through as "through", but as in the

previous case, they can be equivalent in some cases. Let's see how to decide when
to use one or the other.
When we speak of a movement along a line, like a road, a river, etc. we use along
- We rode along a path until we arrived to the cottage.
Instead, we use through to emphasize that we are moving through a three-
dimensional space.
- He pushed his way through the crowd until he was on the first row.
Below, under y underneath
hey are the opposites of above and over, respectively, which we already saw in this
post about prepositions.
Below and under are translated as "bajo", when we mean that an object is below the
level of another.
- They found a Roman theater below/under the street level.
However, when something is not just below, it is preferable to use below.
- An important part of the Netherlands is below sea level.
And likewise, it is preferable to use under, when the object is just below the other,
touching it.
- The child hid under the blanket when we came into the room.
Underneath can be used as an alternative to under.
