Understanding Armenian Prepositions
Prepositions in Armenian are words that help us understand the relationship between different things in a sentence. They can tell us about time, place, direction, and more. In English, these are words like 'in', 'on', 'at', 'by', etc. In Armenian, these words are just as important and help us make sense of what we are talking about.
