prepositional adverb
A prepositional adverb is a word - mainly a particle - which is very similar in its form to a preposition but functions as an adverb. Prepositional adverbs occur, for example, in English, German and Dutch. Unlike real prepositions, they occur mainly at the end of a phrase and not before nouns. They also modify the verb, which a preposition does not.
An example of a prepositional adverb in English is ''inside'' in ''He came inside''.
== Phrasal verb ==
A verb combined with a prepositional adverb is called a phrasal verb only if the verb's meaning is changed by the prepositional adverb. In English, there are lots of examples of this. For example, ''let'' can have many possible meanings depending on which prepositional adverb it is combined with (''let down'', ''let in'', ''let off'', ''let to'' etc.)
