How to Identify Prepositional Phrases?
Good evening, question from my kid’s homework. In the sentence:
"She walked through the park with her friends,"
there are a couple of prepositional phrases, but we’re not sure how to identify them correctly. Could you guide us?

Hello, and thank you for your question.
A prepositional phrase is a group of words that includes a preposition, it's object and anything that modifies the object.
In the example that you gave, the prepositional phrases are 'through the park' and 'with her friends':
- 'through' is the preposition and 'the park is the object.
- 'with' is the preposition and 'her friends' is the object.
I hope that this helps you with all the homework.
