Use of prepositions

• Provides a link between two words or other


elements in the sentence
I'll see you at five o'clock / Te veré a las cinco.
• You can accompany a verb acting as liaison to
its complement. In this case, can not alter the
meaning of the verb or alter it to what
constitutes a different word.
To look / Mirar (no altera el significado del
verbo)
To look after / Cuidar de (se altera el significado
del verbo)
• When we put a verb after a preposition, in
English commonly used as 'ing' and not the
infinitive.
You shouldn’t go to India without visiting the
Taj Mahal.
No deberías ir a la India sin visitar el Taj
Mahal.
I’m interested in studying psychology. / Estoy
interesado en estudiar psicología
POSITION PREPOSITIONS

• Generally, they are placed before the noun or


pronoun, except in the following cases
a.) With the relative pronoun, when followed by
a preposition, it can be placed in final position.

que estudio (en lugar de: The girls with whom I
study)
b.) In interrogative sentences when they start a
interrogative pronoun:
Who were you speaking to? / ¿con quién
estabas hablando? (en lugar de: To whom
were you speaking?)
