A question about preposition !?

Actually, they are all ok, although Four is a bit cumbersome.  My personal preference would be 2 or 3.

Yes.\n\nIt's used in the sentence that you posed as a question.

Hello. I am an English teacher for non-English speakers, in Europe.\nON / ONTO / UPON :  The book is on the table. (location).  I am placing the book upon (onto) the table (prepositions of motion).  Upon is also used when you don't mean a location or motion.  Once upon a time.... upon arriving, we saw the sign.\nHowever... in modern spoken English, "upon" isn't used very much. "placing it on the table" is also good.\nIN / INTO / WITHIN    the Tv is in the living room.  (a location).  Carry the TV into the livingroom. (preposition of motion).  Put the TV within view of all the chairs. (not outside of that distance, in the limits of all to see the TV).  Once again, spoken English is very flexible and you can usethe word "in" for all of these sentences.\nUNDER / UNDERNEATH     under the table (location)  put the carpet underneath. (meaning under the last thing mentioned) the ugly floor is hidden underneath. ( meaning at a lower level).\nIf you save the word "underneath" for the last word of the sentence, your English will often be correct.  Try NOT to use "under" as the last word.  "put the carpet under...  The table!"\nI hope this helps...good luck, Trevor.

D prepositional phrase because it is:\nin - preposition\na - article (adjective)\ngreat - adjective\nmaze - noun (object of the preposition)\na preposition followed by the object of that preposition is a prepositional phrase.  actually, its a prepositional phrase used as an adverb because it answers the question 'where were they imprisoned?'

The first one is correct.\n\nThe second would be correct if you changed the is to has.\n\nHTH

Whom is the object of the preposition

Last I checked, "4" was a number, not a preposition.\n\nGive him the benefit of the doubt and explain things.  If he's asking genuine questions you defintely don't want to discourage him.  If he's just a "smart a**," he'll probably get bored of listening to your explanations and give up.  I'm assuming your talking about a classroom setting?  Look at the rest of his work to get a sense of what he's capable of.

You are using the wrong spelling of your possesive pronoun!! It should be "Their"!! Not "There", which is a location!! Stand corrected!! 2 points for me!! Yahooooo!!!

LEARNT???\n\nTHERE????\n\nMaybe you should have paid more attention to your English lessons - I think you mean to say that you "LEARNED" it; & 'THERE' is always a place, I think you mean 'They're'; and you may have a better chance of finding it - now you will be using better references to look for it! GOOD LUCK

Please trade your enthusiasm for hunting for an enthusiasm for grammar.\nOh, and to answer your question, NO!

I know you're going to hate me for pointing this out, but either one is grammatically correct. There is no right or wrong here. It's simply a question of degree. To what degree has your optimism impacted you? What are you really trying to say? Your intent will determine which word you choose. Say each one out loud and go with the one that feels right for your intended message.\n\nAnd by the way -- it's "moments like these WHEN" (not where).

No.  A preposition is "anything a duck can do to a cloud" or "anything you can do to a box."  E.g., around, through, in, out, over, under, etc.

'On' is a preposition often used as an adverbial particle.  Other words in this category are 'off', 'through', 'by' and 'in'.\n\nIt's actually very hard to pin 'meanings' on to prepositions.  The meaning of a prepostion is actually very different from the 'meaning' of a noun.  (E.g. 'motorbike' or 'democracy').\n\nIf you look at prepositions in even very closely related languages to English (e.g. Dutch and German) they operate very differently.\n\nYou can't really say that a preposition has an essential meaning - it is the sum of its (often many) different uses.
