What are prepositions? Simple definition

Prepositions come from prepose, which means the place in front of others. These are the words that come with a noun or pronoun and make a link with other words. Prepositions have no meaning by themselves but they give meaning when used with other words in sentences.

E.g. The lamp is placed on the table. The word ON in this sentence is the Lamp position with respect to Table.
