Question

A prepositional phrase consists of a preposition and its

  1. Object
  2. Subject
  3. Predicate
  4. Verb

hintHint:

A prepositional phrase refers to a group of words - without a finite verb - that includes a preposition, its object and other words which modify that object.

The correct answer is: Object


    The correct answer is "object".
    A prepositional phrase is essentially a combination of a particular preposition and its object. It cannot include a verb because that would make it a verb phrase. It can incorporate neither the subject nor the predicate because that function will be somewhat similar to noun phrases. So, the correct answer is "object".
