Description (Preposition) Preposition is one of the most important parts of speech. It is too tough to have mastery over it. That is why most of the people ignore it. So far as I know, I do realise that preposition is the lifeline of English Grammar and so of English language and literature to a great extent. In view of this dexterity everyone must read it thoroughly with sheer sincerity. It will, I am sure, enrich their language and literature. I have tried my level best to explain the chapter, though tough, with suitable examples in a very simple language so that even a beginner can understand and grasp this tough chapter with ease. Whatever I have written about, I have written it after thorough study. It is not merely a description but a thesis with a new idea, with a unique thought and over and above with a superb presentation.

The approach to language and grammar that motivates this book is unabashedly functional; grammar is not just a system of empty rules, it is a means to an end, an instrument for constructing concise coherent communication. In grammar as in music, good expression rides on good form. Figuratively and literally, grammar like musical form must make sense. But for the instrument to serve its purpose, it must first exist; the rules must be real, they can be explicitly described and taught. This book is intended for both students and teachers, at college level, for both native and nonnative speakers. With the guidance of a teacher this book will serve as a thorough introduction to the grammar of English. Volume II continues with syntactic and communicative complexity: embedded clauses – verb complements, relative clauses; detransitive voice – passive, anti-passive, impersonal and middle voice, reflexive and reciprocal constructions; focus and topic constructions; nondeclarative speech acts. It closes with interclausal connectivity: conjoined and subordinate clauses, the grammar of discourse coherence, clause chains and thematic paragraphs.
