PRESENTATION OUTLINE
The preposition “In” is one of the place and direction prepositions.
“In” is often used with the word “Limit”.
We use “In” when we refer to small areas as well as big cities.
When used with a place, “In” is followed by a noun.
Although not exactly correct, speakers of English often use “In” the same way as “Inside and Into”.
“In” is extremely useful with time expressions.
Remember that prepositions are commonly used with phrasal verbs.
In general, there are no specific rules for prepositions.
You must study
and learn by heart!
