A preposition is not a good thing to end a sentence with.
Prepositions are words that show the relationship between nouns or pronouns and other words in a sentence. They often indicate location, direction, time, or position. Adverbs, on the other hand, modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs by providing information about how, when, where, or to what extent something is done.
Adverbs can be used at the beginning, middle, or the end of a sentence.
Non examples of prepositions are words that do not show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in a sentence. For example, verbs (e.g. run, jump) and conjunctions (e.g. and, but) are not prepositions. Additionally, adjectives (e.g. happy, tall) and adverbs (e.g. quickly, loudly) are not prepositions.
A preposition is a word which introduces a prepositional phrase e.g. "The boy sat on the fence", "Mary put her watch in the drawer", The team went to the showers"; on, in and to are prepositions. Other prepositions are "with", "for", "of".An adverb is a word which modifies a part of speech, and often - but not always - ends in ly e.g. "She sang beautifully", "They painted speedily", "The boy sat sulkily on the chair". However, not all words which end in ly are adverbs e.g. lovely is an adjective. Some adverbs do not end in ly e.g. most, least.*Some words are used both as adverbs or as prepositions, including locations such as out or around. The distinction is whether they have an object word. The word "in" by itself is an adverb, but "in the city" could be an adjectival or adverbial phrase, and "in" is acting as a preposition.---The difference between adverbs and prepositions is that prepositions will always take an object, adverbs do not. You test for an object by asking the question, What? after the word in question. If it has an object, it is a preposition, if it doesn't, it is an adverb.Ex. He wants to color outside.In that sentence, it simply tells where he wants to color.Ex. He wants to color outside the lines.In that sentence, outside has an object. Outside what? Outside the lines.Again, the entire prepositional phrase tells where he wants to color. Prepositional phrases can act like adverbs, OR adjectives in sentences.
The adverbs in the sentence are "first" and "finished."
No, prepositions and adverbs are two separate word classes.
Particles can function as adverbs, prepositions, or conjunctions, depending on how they are used in a sentence.
No. Prepositions and adverbs are distinct parts of speech. However, a preposition may begin an adverbial phrase.

Adverbs can be used at the beginning, middle, or the end of a sentence.
Some words are both adverbs and prepositions (e.g, below, before, in, through).Some words are always or almost always prepositions (at, for, with).Some words are adverbs that cannot ever be prepositions (then, there, later).That being said, there are many more prepositions that can be adverbs than there are adverbs that can also be prepositions.
Many prepositions are also used as adverbs, but not at the same time, of course.
Intervening modifiers are descriptors that surround the subject of a sentence. These words can be adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, verb phrases, and dependent clauses.
The difference is both above and over function as adverbs, prepositions, and adjectives, but since there is no overlap in meaning with the adjectives, I'll only address the adverbs and prepositions here.

It is neither. It is a preposition. The related prepositions within and without can also be adverbs.
