Prepositions Conjunctions and Interjections

Not technically. For example, in the phrase "whatever the cost" the word whatever is a pronoun and 'the cost' is an appositive. Whatever is most frequently an adjective (whatever price) or pronoun.

The object will be a plural noun, or a collective noun (e.g. among friends, among the crowd, among his peers).

A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another word in a sentence. It typically indicates location, direction, time, or the relationship between different elements in a sentence. Prepositions are essential for clarifying the meaning of a sentence and providing context for the objects or actions described.

No, "women" is not a preposition. It is a plural noun referring to adult female humans. Prepositions are words that show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another element in the sentence.

An example of a conjunction is "and," which connects two or more words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence. For example, "I like to read books and listen to music." In this sentence, "and" is the conjunction connecting the activities of reading books and listening to music.

The preposition "of" is commonly used with the word "importance" to show the significance or value of something. For example, "The importance of education cannot be overstated."

No, it is not. Bridge can be a noun (structure, or card game) and a verb (to cross, or connect, as with a bridge).

Prepositions indicate location (e.g., on, in, under), direction (e.g., to, through, towards), time (e.g., before, after, during), possession (e.g., of, 's, with), and method (e.g., by, with, through).

The conjunction used in the sentence is "and." It connects the two subjects, Tina and Patti, who are planning a surprise party for Mary.

Wow! You have grown pretty over the years. This is an interjection sentence example using Wow.

No, due is an adjective. However, there is a compound preposition "due to" (meaning because, or as a result of).

Prepositions are words that show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in a sentence. They are used to indicate location, direction, time, or the relationship between different elements in a sentence.

Sure! An example of a prepositional phrase is "on the table." In this phrase, "on" is the preposition that shows the relationship between the object "table" and the rest of the sentence.

In the sentence, "There is not likely to be rain except in Scotland," there appears to be two prepositions following each other: 'except' and 'in.' I am assuming 'except in' can function as a discrete preposition because I don't think you can put two prepositions in a row.

No, prepositions typically link nouns or pronouns to other words in a sentence, such as verbs or other nouns. Adjectives are modifiers that describe nouns or pronouns, but they are not directly linked by prepositions.

Interjections are typically placed at the beginning or the end of a sentence to express emotion or add emphasis. They are often set off by commas for better clarity and to separate them from the rest of the sentence.

The word "also" is an adverb, not a conjunction. It is often used to add information or confirm something that has already been said.

The prepositional phrase is "on a Sunday" (preposition "on").

The preposition is "down." The phrase "down the banister" modifies the verb slid.

Yes, a prepositional phrase typically includes a preposition followed by a noun or pronoun, which acts as the object of the preposition. The object of the preposition helps to show the relationship between the noun or pronoun and other elements in the sentence.

It can be, rarely. It is more often an adverb.

It acts as a conjunction in "He would have succeeded, only you interfered."

An idiomatic expression that means the same is "except that."

Yes, connectives and conjunctions are related but not exactly the same. Conjunctions are a type of connective that specifically connect words, phrases, or clauses. Connectives, on the other hand, encompass a broader category that includes all words or phrases that link different parts of a text or discourse.

"Often" is an adverb that can be used to indicate frequency or repetition in a sentence. It is not a connective like "and," "but," or "because."
