Preposition vs. Adverb Does the words provide a relationship between two nouns? Yes? Then it is a preposition Romeo admired Juliet under the balcony. “under” is linking the noun “Romeo” to the noun “balcony” Does it simply add more information to a verb, adj, or adv? Well, then it is an adverb. Love was enough to carry Romeo over. Here, “over” is modifying the verb “carry”

Practice! Preposition vs. Adverb It never seemed like Romeo could get past his heartache Toward the end of the play, Romeo and Juliet will take their lives Romeo had a dream that his end was near. Little did Romeo know that the love of his life was around the corner. He snuck up on Juliet from behind.
