Prepositions are function words. As there are many functions, these small words have many uses. They are especially hard to learn when combined with other words. We call these combinations preposition collocations. In this lesson we focus on collocations with prepositions grouped around the words “house”, “time”, and “agree”. You will learn preposition collocations such as in-house, outhouse, by the time, at the time, agree to, agree on, and many more. More importantly, you will start to understand some ways in which you can group preposition collocations when you encounter them. After the lesson, take the quiz: www.engvid.com/learn-english-...
