Need help with prepositions: at, on, in
Good evening!
Have a big trouble with using preposition: at, on, in, to
saw the video about it, but didn't understand when we use it concerning moving to some places or standing in some places:
for exenple:
I stand on the street, or in the street?
I will go at work, or to work?
I confuse in logic of use. Maybe someone can explaine or maybe show where i can find the explaination?

Unfortunately, I think that a lot of these expressions don't have a unifying logic behind them; with practice, they will start to feel natural as you speak and write.
Also, it's "I stand in the street," and "I will go to work." It is always "go to," I think that "at" connotes that you are at a place or have been there already.
I hope this helps some! Here is a link that tries to explain the rules, but I think memorizing common phrases that use prepositions would be more helpful in this case. http://www.ego4u.com/en/cram-up/grammar/prepositions
