تدريب Shadowing: 10 EASY Grammar Rules For PREPOSITIONS (in, at, on, to, for, etc.) - تعلم التحدث بالإنجليزية عبر الفيديو

Hey guys, welcome to Lingua Marina.

Today we're gonna talk about the subtleties, those small things called prepositions in the English grammar that we often mix up.

And when I arrived in the States, I was like, what do I say?

Am I at the farmer's market?

Am I in the farmer's market?

Like the difference is so small.

And in this video, I'm gonna explain you everything.

So if you want to make sure you're using the right prepositions all the time, continue watching this video really carefully and make sure you're writing things down so that you can practice them later because that's really important.

Okay, let's start with at versus in.

The rule that you have to remember, in is used with major big things like countries, cities, continents.

I was born in Europe.

Well, St.

Petersburg is kind of Eastern Europe.

I consider it Europe.

He was born in Italy.

He was born in Rome.

I was born in Liverpool in a railroad switch house.

We use at with smaller insignificant kind of places.

So I'm at the farmer's market because farmer's market is relatively small.

Same with buildings.

I'm at the airport.

I'm gonna meet you at the restaurant with small insignificant things we're using at.

Work at the university stadium I'm a security guard the next set of rules is regarding all versus all of so we use all of when we have pronouns pronouns are us they them me you those are all pronouns so we say all of us are going to Malibu next week all of them have completed their TOEFL test so whenever it's a pronoun we have all of all of me however in all other cases we have all all the people are forced to stay at home all the students have to wear masks all the children need to stay at home all the gods all the heavens by the way guys if you're looking for a manual or like a book for grammar my team and i have created a grammar book with all the necessary rules that you need.

We have prepositions, we have tenses, we have conditionals.

Oh my God, I hate conditionals.

What would have happened if he had come five minutes earlier?

Like all of those clauses and consequences.

All of that is explained in a very simple manner.

It's a very, very visual grammar book that you can use every single day when you are doing something in English, when you have this question, oh my God, what do I use here?

Our grammar book would be there to help you.

Moreover, if you want more practice, we have a special practice exercise book created specifically for this grammar book.

So you can read the topic on a specific grammar rule and then practice that grammar rule.

It's a very affordable manual created by me and my team.

It's brand new, it's fresh, no old fashioned words, no old fashioned rules.

I use it all the time with my students when I'm creating different classes.

The link will be below.

Please make sure to download it, print it out, or you can use a PDF on your computer or your iPad.

I, by the way, love using iPad Pro, where you can write things inside the PDF with a pen.

But it's up to you, whatever you have at home, or just print it out, and have it on your desk at all times because this is something you can consult when you have any questions regarding grammar.

Again, the link will be below.

Thank you so much for downloading it, and it would really help you go through my videos as well.

The next section, in versus on versus at, when we're talking about time.

So when we talk about general measurements, like I'll be there in two minutes, I'll see you in two days, we're gonna travel abroad in two months.

So this in is used with general measurements.

I'll be there in 20 minutes.

However, when we have a specific date and time, we use on and at.

I will see you on Monday at 12 p.m.

The classes start on September 21st.

I'll go now, if I may.

We'll see you on Friday.

And remember that in is also used with a year.

I was born in 1990.

He will come back in 2025.

That was in 1994.

Beside versus besides.

So beside is a preposition that means nearby.

We were camping beside the river.

We were camping on the shore, right?

We're really close to the river and we're camping there.

Beside the white chickens.

Besides as an adverb and preposition that means in addition to.

Besides, we need your support in this venture.

So this is something you would start your sentence with.

Besides two suitcases, I'm taking three boxes with me.

So it means in addition to my boxes, I'm taking my suitcases.

You mean beside my marriage?

Among versus between.

Among is used when you have a group of objects or people, usually three or more.

She's very popular among her classmates.

She's a very popular girl, right?

I can choose among all your t-shirts.

You have like 30 in your closet.

Oh my God.

among our homes.

Between is when you have two objects.

I can't decide between going to the cinema and staying at home.

Between us.

Yes.

On versus upon.

They're actually interchangeable.

You can use both.

But upon is really formal and unfashioned.

Remember this?

Once upon a time, there was this little girl who lived in the forest, blah, blah, blah.

All the fairy tales will start like that.

Put your book on a table.

We usually just use on in this context.

To versus than.

There are several words that can only be followed by to.

And these words are senior, junior, prefer, prior, superior, inferior, preferable.

He is senior to me in service, right?

We're using to.

I prefer coffee to tea.

I like coffee more.

He is superior to me in terms of grades, which means he's higher than me.

Is Matthew superior to me?

So with these, we use to.

In other cases, we use then.

He's better than me.

100

She's more beautiful than me, etc.

101

You're no better than he is.

102

In versus into.

103

We use in when we have a person, an animal, or an object located in a location.

104

I was sitting in the classroom.

105

He was in the house when the policeman came.

106

Here he is in your office.

107

We use into in a sense of coming toward something.

108

He came into my office.

109

So he was kind of entering a closed space and he was moving toward me.

110

So he came into my office.

111

We're driving into garage.

112

So this is this movement inside.

113

Then we use into.

114

Came into the store.

115

For versus since.

116

For measures a period.

117

Since marks the start date.

118

I've been vlogging for five years already.
