Prepositions Conjunctions and Interjections

The prepositional phrase is from the zoo.

Prepositions are words that represent where something is in relation to something else. Think of standing on a bridge...anything describing where something is in relation to the bridge is a preposition. On, under, beside, near, etc.

In this example "over" is the preposition.

The prepositional phrase continues until you get to a noun (subject), so in the example above "over your head" is the prepositional phrase.

Dr Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury and leader of the world's Anglicans, has described the story of the three wise men as nothing but a "legend" and says there is little evidence that they existed. If we accept that there were no wise men, then there need not have been a star of Bethlehem.

In contrast, verbs express actions, states of being, or occurrences. "Rocking" describes an action, in this case, the movement back and forth.
