A B1 test on the most common Spanish prepositions (a, en, de, por, para, con, desde, hasta) in everyday sentences. Prepositions are one of the details that most often give away a foreign speaker, so they are worth checking.
Ir a + destination (Voy a Madrid) and ir en + means of transport (Voy en tren). Ir a pie and ir a caballo are the exceptions.
As a basic rule, para looks at the goal or destination (Es para ti, Salgo para Sevilla) and por at the cause, the means or the place you go through (Lo hice por ti, Paseo por el parque).
A for clock times (a las cinco), en for months, years and seasons (en mayo, en verano) and the article el for days: Te veo el lunes.
