Spatial (physical) w88 slot online uses

At

The preposition &w88 slot online;at” is used to show a general point or place.

  • We met at Starbucks for coffee.

Using &w88 slot online;at” here is somewhat ambiguous, as &w88 slot online;we” could have met outside of Starbucks, inside of Starbucks, or in the Starbucks parking lot. However, what is relevant is that &w88 slot online;we” met somewhere near Starbucks.

On

The preposition &w88 slot online;on” is used to show location when connected to a surface without walls or specific boundaries.

  • She put the glass on the table.

In

Time proposition uses

At

The preposition &w88 slot online;at” is used to describe a small unit of time, such as hours or minutes.

  • We will meet at nine o' clock on Saturday.

&w88 slot online;At” is used to show the specific, small unit of time of nine o' clock.

On

The preposition &w88 slot online;on” is used to describe a restricted amount of time, which includes dates and days of the week.

  • We will meet at nine o’ clock on Saturday.

Here, we are talking about a day of the week, so we use the preposition &w88 slot online;on” since this preposition is used for more lengthy time references than &w88 slot online;at.”

  • The party will be on June 22nd.

In

The preposition &w88 slot online;in” is used to describe a broad and/or lengthy unit of time. This includes: years, seasons and months.

  • In 1776, the U.S. declared independence.

Metaphorical time w88 slot online uses

Prepositional use in metaphors is a complicated aspect of w88 slot online. To help the process, think of abstract ideas as being a physical box. Some examples of abstract ideas are: love, danger, difficulties, state of being, and words. Imagine each noun as being its own separate box that people can step into, walk through, or get out of.

Here is a list of examples of how these w88 slot online and nouns can function in a sentence:

  • Jimmy and Kelly are in love.
  • Sarah is going through a difficult time right now.
  • I’m trying to get out of a bad situation at work.
  • If you can’t express yourself in words then how can I understand you?
  • I’m in an awful mood.

The preposition &w88 slot online;of”

As an integrative or relationship function.

The preposition &w88 slot online;of” shows the relationship between the green house and the roof. The roof is part of the green house.

  • Peter was in the army, but wasn’t of it.

Showing possession

  • The remark of the judges was not good.

Noun and descriptor integration.

  • Robert was glad the beast of a man was his friend.
