In this article, we will figure out how the prefixes and prepositions are different.
The Russian language has a large number of rules and often when writing, questions arise about the differences in the prefix and the preposition. We decided to figure out how to distinguish both of these parts of speech.
How to distinguish the prefix and preposition?
The very first thing that you need to understand immediately is the preposition is a separate word and is never written together, but the prefix is \u200b\u200bpart of the word and is not used separately. This immediately becomes clear if you use the word in its initial form, asking the question of the nominative case. The prefix will remain in place, since it is part of the word, but the pretext will disappear.
For example:
- Over the garden - garden
- Note is a note
So, in the first situation, “above” will be a pretext, and in the second - “for” will be a prefix.
You can also try to ask a question. If it turns out to be put between both parts, then before you is an excuse. For example, over (what? What?) Garden, over a beautiful garden. Again, this cannot be done with the prefix, because you can not raise questions between parts of the word.
Profiles are able to change the forms of words. That is, they allow you to use words in the sense in which it is required, without this, normal speech would be impossible. For example, in the phrase “over the garden”, the pretext allows you to form a creative case. If we talk about prefixes, they create words. For example, the “race” is formed by the prefix “for”.
You can still try to distinguish between two parts of speech under consideration of their writing. If it is alleged, then this is a prefix. Although, sometimes it is separated by a hyphen. This is carried out in the presence of the prefix “soft” and the suffix “Him”, “Tom” and “I”. For example, in a different way, in my opinion, humanly.
Only in some cases, the spelling of the prefix will be separate. This happens when writing indefinite pronouns and adverbs when they are separated by a pretext. For example, someone with whom. In this situation, the prefix is \u200b\u200bused separately.
Prepositions with any words are written separately and can never be used together.
