• at, on, in, with, by आदि prepositions का प्रयोग प्रायः स्थान वाची (platial) और काल वाची (temporal) शब्दों के रूप में होता है । ऊपर आपने स्थान वाची अर्थ में इनके प्रयोग देखें हैं ।
• on और at दोनों का अर्थ ‘पर’ है तथा by और with का अर्थ ‘साथ’ है । पर इन शब्दों के अर्थ में बड़ा अन्तर है । ‘on the table’ का अर्थ है ‘मेज के ऊपर’ और ‘at the table’ का अर्थ है ‘मेज पर’ । by का अर्थ ‘के द्वारा’ ( से ) तथा with का अर्थ ‘के साथ’ ( से ) है ।
• between दो व्यक्तियों या वस्तुओं के लिए आता है । among दो से अधिक व्यक्तियों के साथ प्रयोग में आता है ।
• Kamla is going in her room. (X)
• Kamla is going into her room.
• ऊपर के दो वाक्यों में दूसरा वाक्य ठीक है । यहां अर्थ है बाहर से कमरे के अंदर जाना न कि अंदर चलना – फिरना, इसलिए into प्रयोग किया गया है । in का प्रयोग वहाँ होता है, जहाँ यह अर्थ निकले कि वह कमरे के अंदर ही कोई काम कर रही है । उदाहरण के लिए नीचे दिये वाक्य पढ़िए:
• कमला अपने कमरे के अंदर है ।
• Kamla is in her room.
• कमला अपने कमरे के अंदर सो रही है ।
• Kamla is sleeping in her room.
