An overview of French prepositions, their role in connecting words, expressing relationships, and commonly used examples.
French prepositions are words that link nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other parts of a sentence, indicating relationships of direction, location, time, cause, and more. They play a crucial role in French grammar by connecting ideas and providing context. Some of the most common French prepositions include à (to/at), de (of/from), en (in), sur (on), sous (under), avec (with), pour (for), and chez (at the home of). Understanding how to use these prepositions correctly is essential for building clear and accurate sentences in French.
