    Hello Toru, Generally, we use at, in and on when we talk about the location of things. What do the prepostions in these three things tell us about the locations? "Meet Simon at the end of the road." "You left your glasses in the bathroom." "Is that a spider on the wall?" At a Point At tells us that the following noun is located at a specific point or location. It shows an exact position. "She's waiting at the entrance." "He's sitting on his chair at his desk." "I work at a bank." In an Enclosed Space In tells us the noun is in an enclosed space (surround or closed off on all sides). Basically, when something is inside something. In a box. In a room. In a country. On a Surface On tells us that the following noun is located on a surface. Use on when one thing is attatched to or touching somthing. On the table. On the floor. On the chair. What's the difference bewteen these two sentences? She's at the library. She's in the library. She's at the library. - the emphasis is on the her location and the type of place she has gone to. She's in the library. - the emphasis is on the type of building she is in. Both of these sentences are fine to answer the question, "Where is she?" Now decide which preposition needs to be used, and I will check your answers for you. 1 - I always keep some extra money __ my bag in case of emergencies. on at in 2 - I'll read it tonight ___ home. in on at 3 - Do you live ___ a house or an apartment? at in on 4 - Did you learn English ___ Malta? in on at 5 - She grew up ___ a farm. in at on 6 - I read about it ___ the newspaper. at in on 7 - He went for a swim ___ the river in at on 8 - The dog's sleeping ___ the carpet. in on at 9 - The information is ___ the top of the page. in at on 10 - Were you ___ the party too? on in at

    See my correct answers below:


    1) "In Newton's day." and "In Newton's time."   

    2) "It is IN hard times like these, you get to know your real friends" and "In really tough times, you need a friend." 

    3)) "The whole country of France/The whole country of the US is worried" and "All (of)the US is worried."
    And "That happened over the entire country of the US"
     "The whole morning was wasted." And "I will be gone for the entire next month" or "I will be gone for all of next month"
     "I will be away all of next month"?

    Hi Diana, The reason they say sheer coverage is because when you wear makeup you want to look like you're not wearing makeup. You want to look like it's just your natural beauty. In this sense, sheer is referring to very fine fabric that you can see straight through as if it wasn't there. That's how your makeup will appear, very fine as if it is not there. In a sentence you can say, Diana came to school in a sheer dress. It's sheer because you can see right through it. Let me know if you have additional questions. Best, Faye

    Hi Soffy,

    Your first example is correct.  Daniel will climb a mountain someday implies that he has not yet climbed a mountain, but he has the capability to do so at some point in the future.  

    Your second example, Sarah and I will watch a movie at home is also correct.  The trick that I use with these types of sentences is to drop the "Sarah and."  Then when you read it, if it still makes since, it's correct.  For example in your third example, Sarah and me will watch a movie at home, if you drop the "Sara and" then you have, "me will watch a movie at home," which is grammatically incorrect.  Now, that's a clear indicator of which statement is accurate.

    Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Hi Celio, "Do your thang" means do what you'd like. It is whatever makes you feel comfortable. Whatever you're doing, keep doing that. It is about being who you are. Faye
