Hi Greg, I have a question. Which preposition should I use In this sentence: Open your textbooks ( on/at ?) page 26. Describe,, what you can see IN the picture.
When I was a little girl studying English as 2nd language, I created a word to remember about IN prepositions. M.A.P.E = Meses (months)/ Años ( Years)/ Paises (countries)/ Estaciones ( Seasons). In March. In 1982. In Peru. In Summer
I was searching for a good channel here in youtube to improve my english and to get from B2 to C1, than thanks God i found you. Your way of teaching and explaining things is the best from what i have seen around and you have helped me a lot in some issues i was confused before. Thank you and greetings from Tirana Albania!
While staring AT my smartphone's screen I've watched this video ON RUclips and IN the end I've understand all rules about prepositions. Brilliant, Greg, huge thanks.

I have been struggling with using prepositions in everyday use. I have watched some videos on RUclips as well, but this one gave me more clarifications. Well done Greg!
Hi, I'm from Mexico and I'm studying English online and your videos can help me even though I realize that you only speak English and you're an English teacher only for English speakers or people who live in those countries, I would have liked it more that you know Spanish and teach English to Latin Americans, however, I will take a look at your channel to see what I can learn from it, if I wrote something wrong, let me know, I would appreciate it so I can improve my English, greetings from Mexico
You are absolutely a tremendous teacher... I've seen so many .. So many english teachers but none like you.. U are so amazing u teach very good and magical .. Easily understandable..So nice teacher👩🏫 I guess ur born to teach👍
Seriously man, you're a legend.. You focus at what any student who seeks to become a bilingual wants, im quite impressed of your classes on RUclips and specially that you really hit on what we students exactly struggle with, once again your a legend man 💪🏻🔥
Very good explanation, I'm Brazilian and I'm learning English and I was having doubts about It. Now, when I have a question I Will look for the answer here.
So clear Greg. Perhaps this could be a little confuse because for example, in spanish we have just one articule to use in almost all of that cases. Practicaly we say 'en' proposition for in, on and at references. Thanks for this lesson
@@MEMANGELSISTERhere Yep. But "no" and "na" is related to the gender of the substantive/adjective. "Na", for feminine, "No" for masculine. In English this does not exist, its much simple. Ex: English: THE man; THE woman. Same. Portuguese: O homem. A mulher. Different. 'No' and 'Na' are the joint designation of em+a (na) or em+o (no)
Hi Greg, could you please explain the difference between "just in case" and "for what it's worth" and give some examples of using each of them? Many thanks.
I really admire people who are able to explain these subtle differences. As a native English speaker I can say that there is definitely a difference between the two but I would have a hard time explaining it.
For what it's worth, I don't think these two phrases are related at all. - You didn't ask me, you asked Greg, but I'm gonna share my opinion anyway and I don't know how valuable you will find it. Hence - "for what's it worth". It doesn't have to be an opinion, but also any action you've done but you don't know if it is useful/helpful/important enough to mention or if it attempts to fix a problem AFTER it's inconvenienced someone. -- I'm never letting you set me up on a date again! -- For what's it worth, he never mentions his scorpion collection at work! "Just in case" describes extra effort, extra supplies as a way to prepare. It can be specific - I brought an umbrella just in case it rains; or vague - I grabbed 3 chairs just in case. I actually think the "just" is specifically when you can't or won't say what you are preparing for. It's like saying "just because" to answer "why?" --Why did you pack 10 pairs of pants, it's a 2 day trip?! -- Just in case You can drop "just" when being specific. -- I'm baking two banana breads for the party in case someone is allergic to walnuts. I hope that helps!
@@Smurphmurph many thanks for explaining this to me. I now understand when to use "just in case", but still not sure about "for what it's worth", do you think there's a way to re-phrase it so I get an idea of how to use it?
@@ЮрийГришин-и7п Yes, "This may be very valuable to you, this may be worthless. Whatever you decide it's worth, here it is." But you often use it when you don't expect it to be too valuable/helpful/useful. I could also say "This may not be helpful, but..." - Your friend needs a ride to the airport, but you don't own a car. - "For what it's worth, you can have you my bus pass." "This may not be helpful, but you can have my bus pass." It's a way to show you know it's not equivalent, but you don't want to not help at all. You can try giving an example and I'll let you know if it works or not.
Greg, what an amazing class. I´ve always had huge troubles with English prepositions, and you´ve made them so easy to understand that even a guy like me was able to get a grasp on it, kkk. The best lesson I ever had in my last 71 years. Greetings from Brasil, and keep up the good job, pal.
Respected sir, being undisputedly the greatest grammarian of this generation across the globe, you are earnestly entreated with folded hands to enlighten me a bit as to which of the following prepositions would be the correct one --They were sitting ------(round/around/at) the dining table and rearranging stamps.
My pet peeve is related to when you are waiting for your turn at a bank, etc. You are waiting "in" line because there are boundaries to it, even if there are no ropes or path telling you where the line should form. But so many seem to use "on" line, as if there is a painted stripe on the floor that they are physically standing "on."
The only time I have ever hear someone say 'on' line is when they are on the Internet. When there is a painted line you are standing on, then you are standing "on THE line".
same with Train and Plane. Apply a rule to English and someone will come along with "yes but..." and explain an exception. Even where you live ... yes, on the street but when ut comes to a house with a name then in Rose Cottage or at Rose Cottage can work. "Have you always lived at Rose Cottage? " English - a complex but beautiful language
I believe it has to do with the fact that buses, planes, and trains have a predetermined route. You are getting _on_ that route. A car is free to go wherever, so you're not getting on a route, you're getting in a vehicle. You get _in_ a fighter jet and if you're a pilot you get _in_ the cockpit of a commercial plane. If you're a passenger you just get _on._
You said, that after the verb "to go" we must use the preposition "to", and you gave at the minute 06:13 following example, using the verb : "Have you ever been *to* the USA? ". Now I got confused, because I thought, that after "to be", that expresses a location but no motion, I should use the preposition "in" = Have you ever been in the USA?
You are absolutely correct with all the prepositions but almost all the incorrect prepositions are correct in rare circumstances. "At night" is the most common but " in the night" has meaning as well.
Hello! I'm Brazilian and I want to thank you for your simple and easy to understand explanation. So thank you very much! I really appreciate your easy-to-understand didactics, because you don't rush through the pronunciations and so, every word, phrase and expression is legible... understandable. And focusing on "AT", "IN", "ON" this has always been my big question! Thank you so much for teaching me the English language!
Basic use of prepositions at early age leads a kid to a better future in English speaking. This will help me a lot to teach my little kiddo. Thank you.

Most confusing grammar in English. A car is inclosed and we use “in”, whereas a public bus is not considered inclosed and we use “on” 🤦🏻♂️
same with Train and Plane. Apply a rule to English and someone will come along with "yes but..." and explain an exception.
Even where you live ... yes, on the street but when ut comes to a house with a name then in Rose Cottage or at Rose Cottage can work. "Have you always lived at Rose Cottage? " English - a complex but beautiful language
Well that's grammar rules. Either take it or leave it m8
when you are in a vehicle like a bus or a plane and you can stand and walk, we use on instead of in :)
I believe it has to do with the fact that buses, planes, and trains have a predetermined route. You are getting _on_ that route. A car is free to go wherever, so you're not getting on a route, you're getting in a vehicle.
