When translating, always remember that there are many parts of a sentence you can ignore, at least at first. Before starting to translate things like prepositional phrases, always make sure you've looked carefully at the verbs and the subject.
When translating from English into Latin, think about the direct object, what is 'being loved/admonished/possessed/etc.' by the subject. Make sure you put an accusative ending on this word; it's usually -am/-um/-em for the singular and -as/-os/a/-es for the plural.
