Prepositions in, to, at | Grammar test

[@ernestorevollar3632]

It was such a challenging grammar test, because I disagree with two questions: How long did you stay in New York? In this one the correct preposition is "in" instead of "at" because it is a whole place in general, therefore "in" fits in there right before "New York". "At" is only used for very specific areas of any place. If the question were this way "How long did you stay at New York center?" it would have been correct putting the preposition "at" because it's emphasizing a particular area of the city, it's something specific. The other question was "The main shops are at the city centre" I'd be disagreeably confused because I guess it's referring to a specific area or ground, it's not in general and it should be "at" instead of "in" as I already explained above. Finally, my overall score was 22/25 without counting those two mistakes that are unacceptable to me and I think they got them wrong (the owner or the staff of this channel).

Yes, I agree with you.

[@Fulham-London]

Have to support you, friend. I made the same two mistakes according to the answers they provided as correct. New York like a city has edges, geographically and physically and you are inside of them. Means you can be anywhere in the city. No specific location.

[@Gods_Gift_Everywhere]

Thanks for the good quizes. Very useful to me. Could I ask 2 questions? First, In the quiz, I saw that you use "arrive in" instead of "arrive at" before London, while you use "get to" instead of "get at" before London. What's difference between "arrive" and "get to"? After giving it some thought, I came up with this idea. The type of preposition after "arrive" depends on the word follows. For insistance, if cities or nationalities come after "arrive", we may use "arrive in". While, sepefic places or spots come after "arrive", we may use "arrive at". In case of "get to", since it's a phrasal verb. That means the two "get" and "to" can't be seperated. That means 'get to' is always used together and they dosen't get effect from the word follows. This is just my thoughts. So I wonder if this idea is correct or not? And, second! In the middle of quizes, I saw "read books in bed". I wonder if I can use "read books on the bed" when I read books sitting upright on?in? the bed. Can somebody give me a good advice?

Hi again! I am very concerned with the question 21. Since we have here a dynamic situation any prepositions should be used. We should use "at home" only with a static situation such as I'm at home. What do you think about it?

[@rigersvatoci4975]

Yes you may be right.There are two posible asnwers there.The first is with “at” and the second is using no preposition at all

[@yevgheniyakx4k371]

Um. The answer to question 21 (and 8 too, as it is the same) is just wrong here in the test. It's 'arrive home', not 'arrive at home'. 19 is wrong too. It's 'in New York', not 'at New York'.

[@plantitasp]

I think both are correct, in means inside the train station, but if you say at* it is not specifically if there is one inside but if there is a toilet anywhere near the station. That's why in would be more correct

[@rupajitamishra299]

For Q11, when we use "on bed" it usually means that we are on top of the bed. When we use "in bed" it usually means that we in bed with a blanket covering us. So using "on bed" will be wrong cuz the sentence says "I was tired" so its odd to say "I was tired, so I stayed 'on bed' late" and it certainly makes no sense! For Q16, I think the correct answer would indeed be "at the station" because we don't ask "Is there a restaurant 'in' the station?" Using 'at' specifies a place. When we say "in a room" it's says that we are inside the room but when we say 'in India', it's not confined to any particular place but we still are inside India. And we don't say "at India", do we? 😅 Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone. Hopefully I explained it in a good way. Have a wonderful day!
