Asked by Katie
The sentence is: No one grew tired of eating it. Is there any prepositional phrases in there?
The other sentence says: Linking verbs link the subject with a noun, a pronoun, or an adjective. Is everything after with(also including with)a prepositional phrase?
Although your first sentence looks like it has a prepositional phrase, <i>tired of</i> is a verb phrase.

Yes. The prepositional phrase in the second sentence is <i>with a noun, a pronoun, or an adjective</i>.
In the first sentence, "Of eating it "is a prepositional phrase. "of" is the preposition and "eating it" is the gerund object of the prep.
