Is it appropriate to end a sentence with a preposition -- such as Can you go with.?
Though there is, generally, no rule against ending a sentence with a preposition, the example cited here is, in fact, gramatically incorrect, which is why I separated it from the main question.Separating a preposition from its object (which is normally what you're talking about when you say "end a sentence with a preposition") is more accurately referred to as "preposition stranding", and is perfectly acceptable in the English language, either written or spoken, formal or informal.What's wrong with the sentence, "Can you go with?" is not that the preposition (with) is separated from its object, but that the object is completely missing.In addition to being improper English, this is also one of my all-time pet peeves.
