连 as a preposition

连 as a preposition

A preposition is used before an object, noun, pronoun or a phrase, to form a phrase that describes a place, position, direction, method, time, object, aim, or the passive voice. Prepositional phrases can be used as adverbial adjuncts, objects, attributives, or compliments.

连 lián as a preposition means "including," and is often used in conjunction with "一起" yìqǐ or "都" dōu, (for example, "连……一起") while "连……都" expresses the unimaginable.
