A preposition is a part of speech that starts a prepositional phrase, such as "the man OF THE HOUSE". The preposition would be "of" and the complete phrase would be "of the house". I guess you could say that a preposition describes nouns, as in aforementioned sentence, "man" would just be a plain noun without the phrase.
