In Synxtax, prepositional Phrases are the one that starts with a preposition (simple as that)
English Examples:
I went to the doctor
To the doctor is a Prepositional phrase acting as Direct Object, where "to" is a preposition acting as Determiner, and "the doctor" is a Noun Phrase as Object to the preposition.
John walks everyday in the park. Prepositional Phrase with preposition "in"
In spanish they are different.
Prepositional phases are a lot, here's a link with many of them:

Just one little suggestion for your flash cards (great job btw) I would say 'starting from' or just 'from' for 'a partir de' (instead of just 'starting') ;) - Kiwi-Girl, Nov 6, 2012
also a little typo - aprueba de = proOf, also 'en torno a' could be 'around' as well as about - Kiwi-Girl, Nov 6, 2012
LOL. Oops, sorry, I just found a random website on google and posted it. Didn't have the time to doublecheck it :(. - Hokuten, Nov 6, 2012
