Understanding Prepositions With a Mind Map

A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in a sentence. Prepositions usually express place, time, direction or manner. A preposition mind map places the central idea at the centre and divides the prepositions into these groups, with examples under each one so you can see how the same word can change meaning.

  • Place: at, in, on, under, between and near for location
  • Time: at, on, in, during and since for when things happen
  • Direction: to, into, through, across and towards for movement
  • Other uses: by, with, for and of for agent, means, purpose or possession

Use the map to revise by covering one branch and recalling its examples. To build a map from your own grammar notes, create one with CogniGuide.

Preposition Mind Map Questions

Answers about prepositions and how to make your own map.

What are the main types of prepositions?

The main types are prepositions of place, time, direction and manner. Some prepositions, such as by, with and for, also show agent, means, purpose or possession, and they are often grouped as other uses.

How do you tell at, on and in apart for time?

Use at for exact times, such as at 5 pm, on for days and dates, such as on Monday, and in for longer periods, such as in May or in 2024.

Which files can I use to make a preposition map?

You can upload a PDF, a Word or PowerPoint file, a text or Markdown file, or an image of your notes. You can also type the topic directly.

Can I turn my preposition map into a quiz?

Yes. Once your map is created, you can turn it into a quiz to test yourself, and the same notes can become flashcards.
