description This work pretends to be a guide of the basic principles involved in using prepositions correctly. It contains an explanation of the different uses of each one of the English preposition as well as their grammatical functions in this language. Also, a classification of prepositions in groups is made. The use of these prepositions with certain syntactic elements, such as adjective clauses, noun clauses, gerunds, etc., is also treated. Phrasal verbs have also been treated in here. We'll find an explanation of what a prepositional phrase is and its function in a sentence. Prepositions in our native language, Spanish, are semantically, grammatically, and functionally analyzed. The point that matters the most in this work is the contrastive analysis regarding the use of the different prepositions in both languages, English and Spanish. This work shows that the use of prepositions in English is one of the most difficult topics of English grammar
