One of the most important rules, or the golden rule, for the use of prepositions in a sentence is that it is followed by a noun and not by a verb. English Verbs never follow prepositions.

For Example: Rohan put the seeds into the plant.

Here, into preposition is followed by the noun- plant.

Yes, we often use transferred epithets in our daily conversation, knowingly or unknowingly. Though transferred epithets are more commonly used in poems and literature, they have become a natural part of our spoken and written English as they help give an emotional appeal to our thoughts.

Phrases like “Sleepless night”, “lucky pen”, “nervous cup of tea”, “lonely road” are some common examples of transferred epithets used in daily conversation.
