Using Nouns as Objects of Prepositions

1. A phrase is a group of related words that does not contain a verb or a subject.

2. A prepositional phrase consists of a preposition, its noun (or pronoun) object, and any modifiers of the object.

3. A prepositional phrase may have a compound object.

Exercise A

If the italicized word is an indirect object, write i.o. above the word; if it is the

object of a preposition, write o.p. above the word.
