the internet grammar of english says that prepositions typically come before a noun

yeah, i know.
in german, it’s pretty strict. a preposition P followed by a noun phrase NP forms a prepositional phrase PP.
the reason that the resulting phrase (from P + NP) is a PP and not a NP is that P governs the following NP, or P gorverns the (grammatical) case of the following NP respectively.
Ps can follow NPs. but since PREposition suggests that it comes before the NP, those are pretty often called postpositions. (same difference, though, regarding government of the NP.)

so, maybe try to look at them at postpositions that have lost direct contact with the NP that belongs to them, but they still can see them. something like that.

not grammatically correct.. a sentence should never end with a preposition

i couldn’t find anything supporting the claim that p-stranding is grammatically incorrect (i wasn’t really looking, though.). the internet grammar of english simply states that there are prepositions and stranded prepositions.

i’m very fond of geoffrey pullum. he put this book out, the great eskimo vocabulary hoax.
he also wrote this article which is a great read: 50 years of stupid grammar advice.
