Publications in English in biomedical sciences - Part I: Proper use of prepositions

Abstract

It is well known that English represents the main language of communication in contemporary biomedical sciences. One of the major problems that occur in communication (both oral and written) in English, which should not be underestimated, is the correct usage of the language by authors whose mother tongue is not English. Our aim was to single out the most common and frequent mistakes made in the use of prepositions so that they could be avoided by authors of scientific papers in English.
