Hello, my brothers and sisters, welcome back to this Channel. Today we will be

learning the use of the preposition over. So, let's start without wasting further

time. Now, assume this is a real bird and not a toy, and if it flies like this

then I would say the bird is flying over the chair. The bird is flying over the

chair, and now the bird flew over the chair. But

if the bird flies like this and makes a circle like this, then I would say the

bird is flying above the chair. The bird is flying above the chair. Now just pay

attention in one sentence, I used the preposition over and in the other, I used

the preposition above, but what is the difference between over and above

Let's find out the difference. In the case of over, the object should be going

from one side to the other side and there should be a height.

But in the case of above, the object will not be going from one side to the other

side but there is a height. There should be a height, but the object will not go

from one side to the other side. Now in the case of the bird flying like this

and making a circle like this, in this case, the bird was not going from one

side to the other side of the chair but there was a height between the bird and

the chair. So, that's why I used the preposition above and in the case when

the bird was flying like this, the bird was going from one side to the other

side of the chair and there was a height between the bird and the chair. So, that's

why I used the preposition over. Generally, in the case of over, there

should be some kind of projectile path in the movement like this,

like this. I hope you got the difference between over and above. Now, I'm gonna

throw this ball over this car. Just wait and watch.

See, I threw the ball over the car. Now, here, why did I use the preposition over

Here, I used the preposition over because the ball went from one side of the car

to the other side of the car and there was a height between the car

and the ball and there was also some kind of projectile in the path of the

ball. So, that's the reason I used the

preposition over. [Music]

Wow!

From the top of this building, I Can See For Miles over this city. Now, here, why

did I use the preposition over? Here, I used the preposition over because my

vision, or I would say my eyesight went from this side of the city to the other side

of the city. Moreover, there is a height involved between my eyesight and

the city. So, that's the reason I used the preposition over.

Wow! Isn't it a beautiful view?

Let's take another example.

The sun is coming up over the mountain. See, here also I used the preposition

over. Over the mountain, over the mountain. I hope you know why I used the

preposition over. An airplane flew over the city.

Here, the airplane has a height from the city and it is also going from one side

of the city to the other side of the city. That's why over is used. I need time

to think over your proposal. Now, see here. Here also, I used the preposition over.

I said think over, think over means I need time to consider the matter

carefully. A few minutes ago, that little boy fell over and started to cry. Now, see,

here also, I used the preposition over. I'm looking at the dog over the top of

my glasses. Now, I'm looking at you over the top of my glasses. Now, here, why did I

use the preposition over? Here, I used the preposition over because

my vision or I would say my eyesight went from one side of the glasses to the

other side of my glasses and its movement also shows some kind of

projectile, and there is a height between my glasses and my eyesight. So, that's the

reason, I used the preposition over. Now if I wear my glasses like this and look

at you then I would say I'm looking at you through my glasses

because I am not looking over the glasses. I'm looking at you

through the glasses. And why through? If you don't know the usage of the

preposition through, the link is in the description box. You can go and watch it.

All the doubts about the preposition through will be over. Now, see, here also

I used the preposition over. And here in this situation, it means, finished, means

all the doubts will be finished. So you can go and watch the video. Just

now a bird flew over that building. Now, I hope you know why did I use the

preposition over here. I hope you know that I don't have to explain it over

here. Don't I? Now, see, here also, I used the preposition over. I don't have to explain

it over here. Over here.

Means I don't have to explain it here itself. Don't I?

Whoa. I tripped over the stone lying on my

path. Let me move it. Otherwise, someone else may also trip over the stone.

Here it would be better.

I hope, I don't trip over again. My mother always loves to chat with our neighbour

over this garden fence. Now, here, why did I use the preposition over? Here, I used

the preposition over because my mother's and the neighbour's voice go from one side

of the fence to the other side of the fence and there is a height involved. So,

that's the reason, I used the preposition over. Right now, I'm on this flyover

bridge, and do you know why we call a flyover Bridge or a foot-over Bridge?

Let's find out. This flyover bridge is built over that Railway track. I am

standing under the bridge. This bridge is called flyover Bridge or overhead Bridge.

Why is it called a flyover Bridge or overhead Bridge? Here, the word over is used

because it is going from one side to the other and has a height and it also has

some kind of projectile. So, that's the reason, it is called flyover Bridge or

overhead Bridge. Friends, do you know what is this kind of bridge called where you

walk on foot? Vehicles cannot go over this bridge.

This kind of bridge where you walk on foot is called a foot-over bridge. What is

it called? Yes, foot-over bridge. Harika is sitting over there. Now, here, why did I

use the preposition over? Here, I used the preposition over because my vision or I

would say my eyesight went from here to there in some kind of projectile. So,

that's the reason, I used the preposition over. A boy was knocked over by a taxi or

I would say a boy was run over by a taxi. Now, see, here also I used the preposition

over.

I jumped over the pit. Now, here, why did I use the preposition over? Here, I used the

preposition over because I went from one side of the pit to the other side of

the pit means there was some kind of projectile in my path, and moreover, there

was a height between the pit and me. So, that is the reason, I used the

preposition over, not above. Let me try to jump over the pit once again.

It's really scary.

Oh, I cannot do it from here. I can do it from here rather, let me try again.

I'm really scared. Uh, once again, let me try

it from here again although I'm scared a little bit.

Some chances more, I think.

I jumped over the pit. I jumped over the pit. Did I really do that? My exams are

over, and I'm relaxing on this capital letter 'A' and you know this capital

letter 'A' is very nice because 'A' for apple and an apple a day keeps the

doctor away, and now see I used the preposition over. My exams are over. Over.

See, here, I used the preposition over and I hope you know why I used the

preposition over. My mother hurt her back bending over to pick up my brother. And

you know, yesterday night, a cat jumped over this gate. Let's take another

example. Children over the age of 12 pay the full price. Now, see, here also, I used

the preposition over. I said over the age of 12. over the age of 12.

It means older than the age of 12. I value the

quality of life over money. See, here also, I used the preposition over. My uncle spoke

to his lawyer over the phone and came to know that the legal battle is over. Now,

see here, I used the preposition over two times. The first one is "the legal battle

is over", and the second one is "spoke over the phone". "Over the phone".

I hope you know why I used the preposition over. We heard the news over

the radio. See, here also, the preposition over is used. The lamp

fell over and broke. See, here also, I used the preposition over. Why don't you come

over for dinner on Sunday? Now, see, here also, I used the preposition over. Come

over. Come over means why don't you come to my house for dinner on Sunday. Who's

that boy over there riding on a cycle. Here also, I used the preposition over.

Over there. Who is that boy over there? Now, what is in my hand? It is a stone. Now,

let me throw this Stone over the wall. Let me try, whether I can do it.

I threw the stone over the wall. Now, why is the preposition "over" used here?

Because there was a distance or I would say a height between the stone and the

wall and the stone had some kind of projectile path in the movement and it

went from one side to the other side of the wall. So, that's why the preposition

over is used here. Now, let me throw all these stones

over the wall. Let's see whether I can do it.

I threw Stone over the wall.

Oh, I could not throw this Stone over the wall. Let me try again.

Wow! I threw another stone over the wall. Now, here, why didn't I use above? Because

there was a distance or I would say a height between the wall and the stone,

and the stone was going from one side to the other side of the wall means there

was some kind of projectile path in the movement. That's why I used over, not

above. I would like to throw another Stone over the wall. Now, where will I

find another Stone? I think all the stones are over. Now, here, why did I use

the preposition over because when something is totally finished then also

we use the preposition over. All the stones are over.

Now, I think, I should throw my ball over the wall, but I will not throw it over

this wall because then I will lose my ball. So, rather, I throw,

um, I'll, rather, throw the ball over the gate. Over the gate. This gate is really

heavy. I can't move it. Let me try.

It is heavier than I thought. No problem, I will throw it from here itself.

I think, I should go there and throw it.

I threw the ball over the gate. Now, here, why did I use the preposition over? Here,

I used the preposition over because the ball went from one side of the gate to

the other side of the gate and there was some kind of projectile path in the

movement, and there was a height between the

between the ball and the gate. So, that's the reason, I use the preposition over.

I think I love this ball. Now, you see I will be throwing this ball over the net.

Let me see if I can do that. I threw the ball over the net.

Now, here, why did I use the preposition over? Why not above?

Because there was some kind of projectile movement,

when the ball was going from one side of the net to the other side of the net, and

there was a height between the net and the ball. So, that is the reason the

preposition over is used, not above. Let me try again if I can throw the ball

over the net and show it to you. I threw the ball over the net.

Let me catch it again.

Whoa, I tripped over. Now, here, why did I use the preposition

over? Here, I used the preposition over, because

when I was falling, there was some kind of projectile. So, that's the

reason, I used the preposition over. Although, I tripped over, at least

I got my ball. That is a gangway. See, it will be attached. Now, it will be attached

to our plane when I will be going through the gangway. Through the gangway. So,

let's walk through the gangway. Through? Why is the preposition through used here?

The preposition through is used when something goes from one side to the other side of something enclosed.

In the case of the gangway, it is enclosed, and we will be going from one side to the other side of the gangway. Hence, through will be used.

Similarly, for this window, we will use the preposition through, not over. We look through the window, not over the window.

Over will be used when an object goes from one side to the other side of something in a projectile path and there should be a height involved.

For this window, we say look through the window. We don't say look over the window. I hope you got the difference between over and through.

Right now, I'm sitting on this capital letter 'B' and you know just right now a

plane flew over the city or I would say over this park.

You know, I also make paper airplanes and I'm sure this time, when I make a paper

airplane it will fly over this park. See, here also, I used the preposition over,

and I hope, you know why I used the preposition over. I have done everything

I can to make you understand the usage of the prepositions. Now, it's over to you.

Now, here, just pay attention, I used the preposition over. I said, "Now, it's over to

you," means now it's your turn to take action. Thank you so much for watching
