Prepositional phrases
Prepositional phrases are structures that combine a preposition with a complement, typically a noun phrase. This combination extends a noun phrase, creating a link that integrates it into the larger context of a sentence. Examples include in the morning, to him, a street with no name, and in which she had to be expelled. Prepositions can be accompanied by nominal clauses (wh-complement clause, see below) and ing-clauses as complements (e.g., three days after singing all night - where the phrase provides a temporal context) (p. 103).
