Preposition of Time

A preposition of time allows to discuss a specific time period such as a date on the calendar, one of the days of the week, or the actual time something takes place. Prepositions of time are the same words as prepositions of place, however they are used in a different way.

Points to remember

  • The golden preposition rule: A preposition is followed by a noun or a pronoun. It is NEVER followed by a verb.

  • A preposition must have an object.

  • The name “preposition” indicates that a preposition (usually) comes before something (its object).

  • A pronoun following a preposition should be in object form.The noun or pronoun that follows a preposition forms a ‘prepositional object’. If it is a pronoun, it should therefore be in the objective form (me, her, them), not subjective form (I, she, they)

Preposition of Time

A preposition of time allows to discuss a specific time period such as a date on the calendar, one of the days of the week, or the actual time something takes place. Prepositions of time are the same words as prepositions of place, however they are used in a different way.
