Function of a prepositional phrase

Answer 1

A prepositional phrase functions as an adjective or adverb in a sentence and provides additional information about the nouns or verbs in the sentence. It consists of a preposition, its object, and any modifiers. The preposition shows the relationship between the object of the preposition and other elements in the sentence. For example, in the sentence "The book is on the table," the prepositional phrase "on the table" functions as an adverb modifying the verb "is" and indicating where the book is located.
