preposition
noun , grammar a word, or words, such as to , from , into , out of , etc, typically preceding nouns and pronouns, and describing their position, movement, etc in relation to other words in the sentence.
[14c: from Latin praepositio , from praeponere , praepositum to put before]
prepositional adjective .
prepositionally adverb .

preposition In current English, a preposition can have various positions within a phrase, clause or sentence, and often comes at the end: ? He was looking for a table to put his books on . ? He was looking for a table on which to put his books. The notion, still sometimes found, that a preposition should always come before the word or phrase it governs, is, like the split infinitive, an artificial rule that has no basis in usage or in principle. Often, especially in idiomatic uses, such a rule would produce absurd results: ?We don't have much on which to go. ? We don't have much to go on. Recommendation: it is correct, and often more natural, to end a sentence with a preposition.
