Is the sheepdog jumped through the gate a prepositional sentence?
the sheepdog jumped <----"jumped" is an intransitive verb. That means it doesn't have to have an object to complete its meaning, or the sentences meaning. "Through the gate." is a prepositional phrase telling "where" the sheepdog jumped. therefore, since it is explaining where the sheepdog jumped, "through the gate" it is an adverbial prepositional phrase. In the sense that the sentence contains a prepositional phrase tagged onto the end of the transitive verb, I guess you could call it a prepositional sentence. However, many sentences have prepositions either embedded in them or tagging at the end , but that doesn't make the entire sentence a prepositional sentence. Many times the prepositional phrase can even be omitted without disturbing the overall meaning of the sentence. The sentence is an "independent declarative sentence." Google the four types of sentences and it will explain to you what they are one is the "independent declarative" one is the "interrogative" etc. I think you are wanting to know if this sentence contains a verbal, and the answer is NO, it does not. There are also three types of verbals: Gerund, Participle, and the Infinitive. google those also. Hope this helps. I have never heard of a prepositional sentence BTW.

What is the position of a preposition in a sentence?
Prepositions and their phrases may be found just about anywhere in a sentence.
