Question
"We always play football after work." Which is a prepositional phrase?
- Always play football
- After work
- We always
- None of these
Hint:
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: After work
The correct answer is "After work".
A prepositional phrase is essentially a combination of a particular preposition and its object. In the above sentence, only "after work" is such a group of words which include the preposition "after" and its object "work". Since we get "work" as an answer when we question "after" with "what", we can definitely consider it as the object to the preposition. So, the correct answer is "after work".
