These POWER Words are usually referred to as prepositions. Prepositions can show a movement, time and position relationship among two or more objects within the sentence.

Spanish prepositions do not take on masculine and feminine or singular and plural. They will always have the same form. Prepositions can be single, formed by only one word, or complex, formed by more than one word.
