DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis completely revised and expanded edition of English Prepositions Explained (EPE), originally published in 1998, covers approximately 100 simple, compound, and phrasal English prepositions of space and time – with the focus being on short prepositions such as at, by, in, and on. Its target readership includes teachers of ESOL, pre-service translators and interpreters, undergraduates in English linguistics programs, studious advanced learners and users of English, and anyone who is inquisitive about the English language. The overall aim is to explain how and why meaning changes when one preposition is swapped for another in the same context. While retaining most of the structure of the original, this edition says more about more prepositions. It includes many more figures – virtually all new. The exposition draws on recent research, and is substantially founded on evidence from digitalized corpora, including frequency data. EPE gives information and insights that will not be found in dictionaries and grammar handbooks.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKENGLISH PREPOSITIONS are the most frequently occurring type of essential words in the English language and should be learned by everyone who wants to speak English fluently-whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner. Prepositions have a strategic function in the English discourse-especially for nonnative speakers. These (often logical) connectors have tremendous power and are of critical importance in the English language learning processes, as well as in grammar studies. Prepositions are an indispensable part of the English sentence structure and perhaps the most efficient tool for international students in the environment of Second Language Acquisition (SLA), for teachers and students of English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) and English for Academic Purposes (EAP). Spatial and nonspatial relations are conceptual in nature. We use prepositions to describe these relations and the interaction between words and meanings in a sentence, clause, or phrase. But context makes it almost impossible for us to grasp the meanings of these words without understanding the concepts behind these logical or contextual connectors. Understanding the Concepts of English Prepositions explores the seven key concepts and their contextual implications encompassing the spatial and nonspatial senses of English prepositions. __________ Andrew Bruckfield's English Language Reference Library: - Prepositions: The Ultimate Book - Mastering English Prepositions, The Key to Fluency in English Conversation - Prepositions by Example - The Quickest Way to Learn and Practice English Prepositions - Understanding the Concepts of English Prepositions - The Container Effect, Dimensional Prepositions, The Proximity Effect, The Concept of Magnitude, The Sound-Wave Effect, The Platform Effect, Complex Prepositions: including Spatial, Nonspatial & Temporal Uses - Essential & Practical English Grammar - A Compendium of Verbs, Phrasal Verbs, Idioms, Prepositions, Vocabulary, Punctuation & more.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK(Workbook coming soon...)"I hate grammar! Why are English prepositions so difficult?""I don't know why we say it that way. That's just how we speak.""There's no logic to prepositions. You just have to memorize them."Here's a secret for you: English prepositions are logical.Why your English Teacher was WrongImagine a farm that grows a lot of different plants. On the surface, you see all the leaves and branches. These leaves and branches are the different dictionary definitions that seem to be disconnected and random. These "surface meanings" are what native speakers are aware of. However, underground we find the root of each plant. The root is the logic that all the dictionary definitions are based on. This underground level is part of the subconscious mind, so native speakers aren't consciously aware of it. This book teaches you the hidden, logical relationships that give prepositions their meaning.What's in this Book?This book contains seventeen of the most common and confusing prepositions in the English language. Each preposition has its own chapter that's divided into sections that guide you through the process and help you learn more easily and more effectively. The sections are: A) Example Sentences (there are over 450 examples); B) The Logic, which includes the key idea(s), an explanation, and etymology notes; C) Detailed explanations of how the logic works in the example sentences from section A; D) Verbs that often use each preposition; E) Phrasal verbs; and F) Idioms. At the end of the book are a few maps of the logical relationships.
