Hello! This is Emma from mmmEnglish,
back with another lesson
on the mmEnglish Youtube channel.
Now in English, we say
"The school is on Bay Street."
Not "The school is at Bay Street."
"They live at 10 Park Road."
Not "She lives in 10 Park Road."
"The museum is in the city."
Not "The museum is on the city."
"I live at 300 King Street,
in an apartment, on the fourth floor."
These little words can cause lots of headaches
if English is not your first language.
They're called prepositions
and there are lots of them in English.
In, on, at,
by, with, for,
over, under,
of, to.
They all help to give information about the time,
location or direction in your English sentences.
in, on, at
and by
In this lesson,
we'll take a closer look at these
small but very common,
very useful English words.
And we'll concentrate on how you can use them
to give information about
the place or location of something.
Now, the bad news is
that there's no clear
way of knowing which preposition you need to use.
In fact,
different prepositions can be used with the same words
but this can change the meaning of
your sentence.
Am I at the car?
At the location of the car?
Am I in the car?
Or am I on the car?
All of these sentences are okay
but the meaning is different in each question.
Most of the time,
you can't just guess the correct preposition.
It's not really a good strategy
to improve your English
- unless you're a really lucky person!
The worst way to try and learn prepositions
is to translate them from your native language.
This can cause lots of problems.
Prepositions must be learned in chunks of words
or called collocations.
Groups of words that are often used together.
Like, "In the morning."
"At night."
"It depends on... (something)"
"He's keen on football."
Learning this way will help you to make
fewer mistakes with prepositions.
