Hi...

Can anyone tell me how to use preposition correctly? I always have problem when should I use on in with of for......

It seems to be mixed up and I don't want to memorize all of them.

Is it serious in writing when you use wrong preposition because sometimes I just guess and use it...

Thanks,
