The prepositional phrase is with the purple shutters.
The question sentence does not have a prepositional phrase.One that does is "Is there a prepositional phrase in this sentence?"
This sentence is a complete sentence and consists of a subject ("postman") and a verb phrase ("will deliver"). It also includes a prepositional phrase ("to your house"). The sentence overall functions as a declarative statement.
"between the lake and the short road" is the prepositional phrase in the sentence. It starts with the preposition "between" and includes the objects of the preposition, "the lake" and "the short road."
No. A prepositional phrase needs a noun, and it needs a preposition. It's called a "prepositional phrase" because it's not a sentence-- it can't stand by itself and make sense, and it's often used in a sentence to give more information. For example, "in the house" is a prepositional phrase. So is "at the zoo," "on the roof," "inside my wallet," "to the principal's office," and "under a bridge." There are many prepositions, but they include: in, on, to, at, under, over, etc. Here is how it is used in a sentence: "At the zoo, there are many interesting animals." Or, "Her teacher sent her to the principal's office." First, find the preposition ("at" in first sentence, "to" in the second), then find the noun, and chances are you have found the prepositional phrase.

There is no verb in "in the house?". "in the house?" is a prepositional phrase, consisting of a preposition, an indefinite article, and a noun. Since it doesn't have a verb, it isn't even a sentence at all.
No, it is a sentence. The word past is a preposition, with the object house.
A prepositional phrase is a group of words that starts with a preposition and ends with the object of the preposition (a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase).Let's look at some steps to identifying prepositional phrases.1. To identify a prepositional phrase, you first need to identify the preposition. Prepositions come before the noun or noun phrase to give us more information about the noun. Prepositions connect the noun to the rest of the sentence. A preposition can be a word or a phrase.Here are a few common prepositions:(For a good list of English prepositions with definitions, see the links below.)onbyagainstunderthroughaboveinbetweennext tobehindon top ofduringinside2. Once you have found a preposition in a sentence, you need to keep reading to find the object of the preposition that ends the sentence. It will be a noun or pronoun that comes after the preposition. It may not be directly after the preposition as there may be other words in the phrase.Let's practice identifying the prepositional phrase in this sentence:She waited inside the house.In this sentence, "inside" is the preposition.We continue reading after the preposition to find the object of the preposition."The" is not a noun or pronoun, so it cannot be the object of the preposition.The next word is "house." It is a noun and the object of the preposition "inside."So, the prepositional phrase is "inside the house."We could also have other adjectives in our prepositional phrase.inside the green houseinside our houseinside our big, green houseAll of the above examples are prepositional phrases beginning with the preposition "inside" and ending with the object of the preposition "house."See the links provided for more information about prepositions and prepositional phrases.

Using a preposition before a noun or a pronoun forms a prepositional phrase, which can modify another word in the sentence.Examples:We met Maxie at the pool. (the prepositional phrase 'at the pool' modifies the verb 'met')The house at the corner is for sale. (the prepositional phrase 'at the corner' modifies the noun 'house')I made a sandwich for you. (the prepositional phase 'for you' modifies the noun 'sandwich')
The phrase "in the old house" is a prepositional phrase, using "in." It can be used as an adverb, or an adjective.
