Adverbial or prepositional phrase?

Hi, everyone.

Could you tell me whether the phrase in bold is prepositional or adverbial?

He fell off the rooftop.

Thanks!

Assuming you are asking about the expression "off the rooftop", its a preposition phrase . It's easy to identify as a PP since it has the preposition "off" as its head word. The PP functions as a complement in the sentence.
