A [[preposition]] is '''stranded''' if it doesn't [[movement|move]] along with its [[complement]].<br />
<br />
=== Example ===<br />
<br />
in (i)a the preposition with is stranded.<br />
<br />
(i) a ''Who'' did you speak ''with''?<br />
b ''With who'' did you speak?<br />
<br />
The example in (i)b shows the case where the preposition moves along with the ''wh''-word (see [[Pied piping]]). Preposition-stranding is restricted: it cannot be applied to all prepositions, and it is impossible in at least [[French]] and [[Italian]].<br />
