What is a preposition?
A preposition connects a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase to other parts of a sentence.
Prepositions can be confusing for those learning English because there aren't strict rules for using them. At the beginning, it's helpful to spot prepositions in what you read or hear and see how they're used.

- at the desk
