Meet the preposition
[Voiceover] Hey grammarians, I want to talk about prepositions but before I do I'm going to draw you a little hamster.발음듣기
Now I'm going to use this critter to establish what prepositions are and what they do because in addition to there being a hamster there's also going to be this box.발음듣기
So what prepositions do is they establish relationships between stuff in place and time so it can show us where things are, when things are, and how things are.발음듣기
So, okay, using just this hamster and this box we can move this box around and talk about how the hamster relates to the box, right.발음듣기
Right, the box is under the hamster, that word under is a preposition because it's establishing this relationship of where.발음듣기
And our hamster decides it's going to go out and it's going to splurge on a fabulous, new hat, just an enormous top hat, a little band in the center, just a big, old, silly, Abe Lincoln style, stove pipe, top hat.발음듣기
Now, another use for prepositions is we can talk about when things are in relation to each other.발음듣기
But another interesting thing that prepositions can do is they can also help express how something is or how it's, what it's for, what its use is.발음듣기
We can also use a word like of to express the how relationship and that's just sort of to say what belongs to whom.발음듣기
So that's what prepositions are in the most basic sense they can help you figure out what the relationship is between two things in time and space or how one thing relates to another.발음듣기
