PREPOSITIONS

значениях.
Предлоги очень важны для построения и понимания английского предложения,

т.к. являются одним из основных средств, указывающих на связь слов в предложении.
Английский предлог обычно имеет больше одного значения - один и тот же предлог может быть и предлогом времени, и предлогом места и его значение при этом меняется.
Английский предлог, как и в русском языке, обычно стоит перед существительным или местоимением. Но, если существительное или местоимение относиться к глагольным сочетаниям или фразовым глаголам, то предлог может стоять в конце предложения.
Английские предлоги могут выражать те значения, которые в русском языке передаются окончаниями косвенных падежей: of – родительным, to – дательным, with, by – творительным

At – в, за, у, рядом; на
From – из, с,

Of – из, о; предлог притяжательного падежа
