A cognitive linguistic analysis of the English preposition ON is presented. It is meant to be both systematic and comprehensive. It is systematic in that the various apparently disparate senses of ON are made to follow from a single simple core meaning. It is comprehensive in that it is meant to cover the entire range of senses that are displayed by ON. Specifically, the whole set of extended senses of ON can be traced back to either the‘contact’aspect or the‘support’aspect of the core meaning of ON. It is shown in this paper that by hypothesizing a very simple core meaning for ON it is possible to account for the set of extended senses in its entirety in a systematic way
