Some people like their corn on the cob, while some like it off the cob. What about under the cob, or inside the cob? If you replace the “on” in “corn on the cob” with another preposition, it will make some amount of sense.

Prepositions:

About

Above

Across

After Against

Along

Among

Around

At

Before

Behind

Below

Beneath

Beside

Between

Beyond

But

By

Concerning

Down

During

Except

For

From

In

Inside

Into

Like

Near

Of

Off

On

Onto

Out

Outside

Over

Past

Regarding

Through

Under

Underneath

Up

Upon

With

Within

Without

This trick works with other phrases that have two nouns and the word “the”.

Examples:

Dog (preposition) the bridge

Plane (preposition) the sky

Orange (preposition) the peel

Poster (preposition) the wall

You can replace many prepositions with another preposition to change the phrase.
