* Avoid redundancy of Preposition
* BUT is very seldom a preposition. when it is used as a preposition it has the same meaning as except.
The reporter gave us hints that we can use in prepositions:
- The word to is often a preposition but it is just as often part of an infinitive verb.
- To find the preposition ask ''what'' after the preposition.
