“On” is preposition but in there used 
as linking word which is meaning equal 
with “when”.
These types of prepositions are enable 
to use like this way, moreover, similar 
with the prepositions such as; “upon” 
comes as linking word instead of “on” 
and “when”. Some prepositions can 
change the meaning of the sentences if 
they are chosen correctly. These are; at, 
for, to which are used with nouns, adjec-
tives and verbs by taking into different 
meanings and structure.
In a list of English prepositions you 
will find very common words such as ‘in’, 
‘up’, ‘on’ ‘at’ and ‘with’. Prepositions hold a 
privileged position as parts of speech. In 
other words, there is contract to nouns, 
adjectives and verbs, which become new 
additions to their groups. Prepositions are 
important because they act as vital mark-
ers to the structure of a sentence: they 
mark special relationships between per-
sons, objects, and locations.
It’s very difficult to use prepositions 
correctly in English and they present a 
number of problems for both teachers 
and learners. Most prepositions, espe-
cially the common ones, have several dif-
ferent functions. The preposition ‘on’, for 
example, has many different functions, 
depending on which is based on diction-
ary. There is no logical way of deciding 
which preposition goes with a particular 
noun, verb, or adjective. In many instanc-
es, the correct prepositions cannot be 
guessed, so the expression must be 
learned as a whole. The problem is com-
pounded when a particular vocabulary 
item which is used again. It’s those com-
monly used ones that with many different 
prepositions, making teaching and learn-
ing a longer process than we initially ac-
count for. Consider the adjective ‘good’. 
As a teacher, which of the following would 
you necessary?
This food is good for your health.  – 
Бул  аукат  сенин  ден-саулыгын  ушын 
пайдалы.
Tom is good at math.- Том 
математикадан жаксы.
Katy is very kind and good to me.- 
Кэти маган мийрыман хам жаксы му-
насебете.
Adam is engaged to a famous actress. 
Адам 
таныклы 
актрисаға 
унастырылған.
Mr. Hills is engaged in an important 
meeting. – Мr. Хилл әӽимийетли ушы-
расыу менен бәнт.
My plants died from lack of water.- 
Мениң  ѳсимликлерим  суусызлыктан 
ѳлди.
Princess Diana died in an accident. – 
Принсесса  Диана  авариядан  кайтыс 
болды.
Jane likes to be comfortable, so she is 
not  keen on camping.  – Жейн 
колайлыкты  унатады,  сонлыктан  ол 
палатка тигиуди жактырмайды.
Sam is keen to join the army when he 
leaves school.  – Сэм  окыуды  питирген 
уакта, армияға алынады.
All of these sentences are correct, yet 
in each case the adjective goes with a dif-
ferent preposition. Words are the same

but the prepositions are different. There 
have to take into consideration meanings 
which are chosen as suitable for nouns 
and adjective. We need to consider how 
we would deal with phrase such as ‘in-
stead of’ and the best way to teach words 
such as ‘good’, that go with multiple prep-
ositions. In the examples the prepositions 
change not only the meaning but also the 
structure. If there is chosen different 
preposition, it will be wrong surely. The 
roles of prepositions are important in 
grammar. L 2 learners can use the way of 
the learning progress and interfere with 
correct English usage. Some expressions 
in English do not use a preposition but 
the same expression in another language 
does. The majority of learners are native 
Karakalpak speakers, say like this sen-
tences ‘he married with her’. Another 
problem I usually encounter in Karakal-
pak learners relates to the multiplicity of 
uses of particular prepositions. Karakal-
pak language has no prepositions serving 
the same purpose as ‘of’, ‘at’ and ‘to’ in 
English, make it difficult for native learn-
ers to distinguish between various uses.
