ABSTRACT
A preposition is a word of relation/relating. A preposition connects elements of a sentence. Geography is writing the earth. And since writing is always situated in a place, and since the place of writing always motivates and informs and constrains the writing, it is important to grow more aware of the places where writing is situated. Student-teachers seek ways of being written into the world of schools as already written. They see their relations with school as established for them. An etymological dig in several dictionaries reveals that the word grammar is derived from the word gramarye which is now called an archaic word related to the old French gramaire or learning. To be in accord with the rules or principles of grammar is to acknowledge the ways that the rules are generated and created and transformed.
