Confirmation email Deutsche Post – storage service?
Hello This afternoon, I booked a mail storage service online with the post office for about three weeks. I paid directly via bank transfer, but I haven't received a confirmation email. Do you only receive confirmation by mail? Does anyone know from experience? Or should I call? Best regards sara l.
The verb “wait” is used with the preposition on and the battery. Therefore, “on the letter” is a so-called prepositional object. Acoustic objects themselves do not depend on a combination of a verb and a preposition. In my last sentence, I just used another game, “hanging off” that is always used with the Dativ.
Hello Markus373,
this is a prepositional object.
Why?
Because the preposition belongs to it.
“What am I waiting for?”
“To the letter.”
After the preposition, however, the battery case is used here.

Prepositions: for, on, on, on, off, over, before, with, after, etc.
One example: Lisa is waiting for her friend’s letter.
The object following the preposition is called prepositional object or prepositional object.
‘I’m waiting for the letter‘
A battery object would have become if the verb expected had it been: I expect the letter. Question: Who or what do you expect? The letter.
But the preposition came on in between. Therefore, a prepositional object has become of this. Question: on what? ==>on the letter
That’s it?
Very well explained! Thank you.
Thank you.
