Adverbs and Prepositions
Adverbs are
words or groups of words which tell time,
place, frequency or manner.
I ate my lunch yesterday.
I ate at that restaurant last week. |
She went there.
She went downtown. |
Prepositions are usually followed by objects in prepositional
phrases. They
can also be used to indicate time, place, frequency, duration, reason, manner,
or to show contrast.
I ate my lunch at noon.
I ate in the cafeteria. |
She went to the store.
She walked into the house. |
*Do not use adverbs as objects of prepositions.

downtown, today, next/last week, etc.
