Explanation
Over is a very common word with many uses. It often shows position or location, meaning something is above, covering, or across something. For example, the lamp hangs over the table. It can also describe movement towards something or from one side of a point in space to another, as in she leaned over to look at the picture on the wall, or the cat jumped over the table. Over is also used to show that something is finished or completed, such as the game is over, or I went over the report, where “went over” means reviewing or checking something completely. Sometimes, it means more than a certain amount or level, like when the water level is over the danger mark after heavy rain.
