Adjectives And Pre-Positions

 

Grammar explanation : گرائمر کی وضاحت

Some adjectives go with certain prepositions. There are no grammatical rules for which preposition is used with which adjective, so it's a good idea to try to learn them together. To help you do this, write new vocabulary in your notebook in a sentence or phrase.

کچھ اسم صفت خاص حروف جار کے ساتھ استعمال ہوتے ہیں۔ کونسا حروف جار کونسی اسم صفت کے ساتھ استعمال  کرنا ہے اس کے لئے گرائمر کا کوئی قانون نہیں ہے ۔

However, there are some patterns that can help you. Let's look at them first. Remember that a preposition is followed by a noun or a gerund (-ing form).
