Prepositions
              Preposition is a word that shows a relationship between a noun and a pronoun in a sentence. For example:

              Words are:
                Above, across, against, beneath, below, towards, under, until, upto, from, to, near

              Preposition in a Sentence:
                My cat is sitting under a dining table.
                We are ahead of that blue van.

              Interjections

              An interjection is a word or a phrase that expresses a sudden or a strong feeling. Grammatically they are not related in
              a sentence but express a relationship between a word and a phrase in a sentence. Sometimes they are followed by an
              exclamation mark(!). For example:

              Words are:
                Cheers, alas, eureka, great, gosh, goodbye, oh, ouch

              Interjection in a Sentence:
                Alas! I am so lost without you.
                Great! You are coming with me.



                      USE OF ARTICLES

              Articles is a word that describes the noun. It is used before a noun to show whether it is specific or not. In English
              grammar there are three articles—A, An, The. Let us study about them in detail.
              Definite—The

              “The” is a definite article which is used before a noun that indicates something clear or obvious.
              For example:
              •  The sun shines bright today.
              •  Give me the book on the table.

              Indefinite—A, An

              ‘ A’ and ‘An’ are indefinite articles which are used before a noun that are not specific or known before.
              •  “A” is used before a word beginning with a consonant(alphabets other than vowels) sound.
                For example:  A book (it can be any book)

                             A game (it can be any game)
              •  “An “ is used before a word that begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) sound.

                For example: An umbrella
                        An hour
                        An ice cream

              When No Articles are Used
              •  For common/general things. For example:
                Fruits are good for health.
                Do not eat medicines without doctor’s prescription.
