DEPENDENT
PREPOSITION

AND PREPOSITION
COMBINATION
DEPENDENT PREPOSITION

When we talk about dependent prepositions, we are dealing with a somewhat


different kind of prepositions in general. If we translate dependent
prepositions, they have the meaning of a preposition that is bound. The
meaning of bound here is that these prepositions are generally united with
other words and have a certain meaning from the said unit. As we know that
preposition is a word used to connect two ideas or concepts. Examples are at,
in, on, for, to, with, and from.
DEPENDENT PREPOSITION

We can conclude dependent prepositions as prepositions that follow verbs,


adjectives, and nouns to form a phrase with a certain meaning.
Unfortunately, in English grammar, there are no definite rules that can help
us decide what dependent prepositions should be paired with a particular
word. We just need to study it and memorize it. Remember that sometimes
the use of different dependent prepositions can change the meaning of a
phrase.
To better understand this, consider the following example:
She was angry with you because you are lazy
(dia marah padamu karena kamu malas)
She was angry about the problem she had to handle
(dia marah tentang masalah yang harus dia hadapi)
In the first sentence, 'she' is angry with someone, while in the second
sentence, 'she' is angry about a certain condition. The best way to learn more
about dependent prepositions in English is to make a list of the dependent
prepositions themselves and then look for sentences with good structure.
One of the easiest ways to overcome the problems mentioned earlier is to search for them on
Google. Suppose you remember that the word 'complain' is usually followed by the dependent
preposition 'about', so we can search for it on Google and see if the results are appropriate or
not.

Above we have seen that dependent prepositions can follow verbs, adjectives, or nouns.
Therefore, there are three types of dependent prepositions in English, namely adjectives and
dependent prepositions, verbs and dependent prepositions, and nouns and dependent
prepositions.

PREPOSITION COMBINATIONS

Preposition combinations are combinations between prepositions and other words


in a sentence. Several classes of words or parts of speech that can be combined
with prepositions are nouns, adjectives and verbs. The following are some examples
of preposition combinations in English.
UNS + PREPOSI
N LATAR BELAKANG
O TION

Some examples of "Noun + Preposition" combinations,


for example: solution to, expert at, lack of, information about, anger at,
reason for, interest in, access to and many more. Now we will try to use one of
these preposition combinations in a sentence.

Example: I don't have access to the control room.


(Saya tidak memiliki akses ke ruang kontrol.)
LATAR
JECTIVE + PREPO
BELAKANG
SITIO
AD N
Some examples of "Adjective + Preposition" combinations,
for example: afraid of, accustomed to, aware of, bored with, certain of,
disappointed with, familiar with, famous for, frightened by, happy with,
interested in, opposed to, satisfied with, surprised at, surprised by, tired of,
worried about, angry about, good at, qualified for, different from, similar to and
many more. Now we will try to use one of these preposition combinations in a
sentence.
ERB + PREPOSITION
VLATAR BELAKANG

Some examples of "Verb + Preposition" combinations,


for example: agree on, agree with, approve of, arrive at, arrive in, complain
about, comment on, consist of, depend on, laugh at, succeed in, believe in,
care about, decide on, look after, stare at, talk about and many more. Now we
will try to use one of these preposition combinations in a sentence.
Example: I agree with you. (aku setuju denganmu.)
In addition to the above combinations, there is one more addition, namely
phrasal-prepositional verbs, which are combinations of verbs, particles and
prepositions. These phrasal-prepositional verbs are divided into two types.
In type 1 the particle and its preposition cannot be separated, but in type
2 the particle and its preposition can be separated using a direct object.
Here are some pairs of words that belong to types 1 and 2.
Type 1: run out of, come up against, look out for and so on.
Type 2 : fixed . . . up with, put . . . down on, let . . . in on and so on.
Example: I can fix it up with a screwdriver. (Saya bisa memperbaikinya
dengan obeng)
