One thing that has changed since my day of being taught grammar rules is the recognition of the phrasal verb. Way back when the preposition was not permitted at the end of a sentence. Now, grammarians are recognizing that that thing that looks like a preposition isn't always one. This is not so much a change of the grammar is she is used as it is a recognition of something that has been going on all along.
