www.engVid.com Many students have problems with prepositions in English. In this lesson, I explain how three prepositions -- 'at', 'on', and 'in' -- are used in relation to time. If you have any questions about this lesson, please come to the forums on engVid, where I will be happy to help you.
I hope you don't ... By: hitechenglish. on 03 Sep 10, 01:10:02 I hope you don't mind a little constructive criticism.
How could you make something so simple so complicated?
at -> hours
on -> days
in -> long periods of time
GAME OVER
"Say 'in' if you're not sure". That's the worst advice I've ever heard.

1 -> "At the office", means for example, that he's like around the office, not necessarily inside the office. 2 is the same.
3a/b -> Same thing here, but you need to use an article at 3a "at the Bank.." or "at a bank..".
4a/b -> It's the same as this example: "He spilled the milk all over the floor", some specific milk or "He spilled milk all over the floor", can be any milk.
Thats it, very easy, I know your comment was 10 months ago.. but..

The word "everyday" as used in the sentence describes the nouns "Mary" and "John" who swim everyday. Meaning, swimming is ordinary to them or something which they do each day.

By: alivingcreature. on 29 Jun 10, 04:42:25 @phonicsquest This woman has made a lot of really useful, well structured and detailed videos that have been of help to thousands of people, I don't think a mistake with "everyday"/"every day" means she shouldn't be teaching. Put it into perspective. Just because you noticed an error, doesn't make it an important one.
@trejojimmy: I'm ... By: AO968. on 18 Jun 10, 20:19:35 @trejojimmy: I'm not a native English speaker, yet even I can see that she made a mistake.
Dictionary entry for 'everyday':
1. Appropriate for ordinary days or routine occasions: a suit for everyday wear.
2. Commonplace; ordinary: everyday worries.
So, yes, she definitely made a spelling mistake there. She should have spelled it as 'every day', not as 'everyday'.

I think it sucks ... By: littleNorwegians. on 25 Feb 08, 17:47:17 I think it sucks they made wolf a good guy.
I know he is saving Fox so that he may fight him later, but compared to how he acted in the 64 version and what Fox did to him (Got his eye. Killed some team members, defeated the side he was on, defeated him several times.). I think it was too. . . Standard of a thing to do. I allways thought the star fox series had original characters, but now it's more generic.
PS: And why did they downgrade the graphics on Fox's fur? He looked great in adventures

I hope you don't mind a little constructive criticism. How could you make something so simple so complicated? at -> hours on -> days in -> long periods of time GAME OVER "Say 'in' if you're not sure". That's the worst advice I've ever heard.

WOW, WOW, WOW, Rebecca thanks a lot , completely lost and doing the mistake of not using the proper preposition while conversing with others. Now is a lot more clear, my first language is spanish, I'll continue to take full advantage of your videos, thanks for posting those : ))

@titoheman Let me help you. 1 -> "At the office", means for example, that he's like around the office, not necessarily inside the office. 2 is the same. 3a/b -> Same thing here, but you need to use an article at 3a "at the Bank.." or "at a bank..". 4a/b -> It's the same as this example: "He spilled the milk all over the floor", some specific milk or "He spilled milk all over the floor", can be any milk. Thats it, very easy, I know your comment was 10 months ago.. but.. Good bye.

I tell people to fill in the blank of this sentence: The squirrel ran ________ the bushes. Most of the prepositions fit in the blank, like: in, under, over, toward, on......

...by the way Rebecca,you are cute.....
By: phonicsquest. on 06 Jun 10, 22:14:15
Rebecca ,the only problem is the audio ,either you are very far from the micro or the micro is too weak, or the room is too big, also, we hear the sound from the garbage truck and other cars and trucks from outside, would you mind closing windows next time? Thanks. Excellent class and very clear explanation. Good Luck!

@baigandine Trying to think of more transport-related things....on the raft, on the moving walkway (at the airport), on the rollercoaster. A bit early for me...
By: baigandine. on 02 Jun 10, 04:25:50
@Georgia275 I would add that we also use 'on' for anything that does not have a roof or walls, such as a magic carpet, or a camel, even if it were lower than us.

@snowbelle20 "in the morning" "I eat sausage and pancakes in the morning."
By: r9m3. on 10 May 10, 20:50:39
"...In this lesson..." Why "in"? Why not "On this lesson..." Why not "at this lesson"? Thanks in advance for your explanation. (Why not "thanks on advance"?) Hehehe.
