Prepositional phrase

In a prepositional phrase the preposition always comes at the beginning, for example:
I longed to live near the sea.
The dog was hiding under the kitchen table.
Of course, we also use the word phrase to refer to a short group of words that have a
particular meaning when they are used together, such as rain cats and dogs, play for
time, or a square meal. This type of phrase is often referred to as an idiom.
