Prepositional phrases can be used as adjectives or adverbs to modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. Prepositional phrases can be used to create a “prepositional verb”. Prepositions can be used to show relationships between nouns that don’t have a physical connection. For example, 'The dog is afraid of the thunder.' In this sentence, “of” is the preposition connecting “dog” and “thunder.”
