The movie was very exciting.' -- and (2) with nouns which are specific: 'I saw Terminator 3 last night. The lead actor was very big. (There is usually only one lead actor in a movie.) Here is some more information on THE DEFINITE ARTICLEhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#78083Sat, 23 May 2009 23:47:09 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:78083yunus2http://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#78083http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-78083.xmlThanks Lynlianna Yes i have other questions. i'm confusing about the.

Thanks for your question about prepositions. I think the other member of this forum did an excellent job of explaining prepositions to you. Do you have any other questions?http://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#77980Tue, 24 Feb 2009 00:47:09 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:77980Mister Micawber5http://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#77980http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-77980.xmlHi Monika, The solution is that 'I' is a subject pronoun and 'me' is an object pronoun. 'This is exciting, not only for Sue but for you and me too.' -- 'you and me' is the object of the preposition 'for'. ' I too of course am really looking forward to...' -- 'I' is the subject of the verb 'am...looking'. 'Me too' is acceptable in casual English as an isolated response: A: 'I'm looking forward to the picnic.' B: 'Me too!'http://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#77911Tue, 24 Feb 2009 00:47:09 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:77911Guest6http://www.englishforums.com/English/DoesAnybodyExplainPrepositions/xhld/post.htm#77911http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-77911.xmlCould you please tell me when to use me or I? I received the following message from an Australian native speaker: ...This is exciting, not only for Sue but for you and I too ...... (I thought it was me in this case) I too of course am really looking forward to.........(again I'd say: Me to .......) Is there a solution to the problem?

Prepositions do many things, but these three -- at, in, on-- indicate location mostly: My hat is at the milliner's. My hat is in the wastebasket. My hat is on the top shelf.
