Predlozi i imenice u engleskom jeziku - specifični slučajevi



Ono što često pravi problem osobama koje uče engleski jezik jeste upotreba određenih predloga ispred (konkretnih) imenica. Neke izraze je lakše zapamtiti, jer su logičniji, približniji upotrebi u srpskom jeziku i bliži osnovnim pravilima koja važe za upotrebu predloga, odnosno, ih njihovih značenja, dok neke druge jednostavno moramo učiti "napamet".

U nastavku teksta osvrnućemo se na neke slučajeve sa kojima se često susrećemo, te nam sledeći primeri mogu biti od koristi.

- "to pay BY cheque", ali "to pay IN cash" ili "to pay cash":
Did you pay by cheque or in cash?

- (to do something) BY accident / BY mistake / BY chance:

- a play BY Shakespeare / a painting BY Rembrandt / a novel BY Tolstoy etc.:
