문화적 배경
In the US, 'getting home' is often followed by 'unwinding'. It's common to change into 'loungewear' immediately. In the UK, 'getting home' might involve a stop at a local shop or pub on the way, making the journey part of the ritual. The concept of 'tadaima' (I'm home) is the cultural equivalent of the action of getting home.
The Preposition Rule
Remember: No 'to' before 'home'. It's the most common mistake!
Don't use 'at'
