PREPOSITIONS IN ENGLISH

Prepositions are one of the parts most difficult English speakers learn Spanish 

language, because the direct translation is often impossible. Prepositions can be

 translated differently depending on the situation or context of use. It is therefore 

advisable to store the different variations and uses depending on whether we are 

talking about prepositions of place, movement or time. We will see that many of the 

prepositions are repeated in the different sections.

IN / AT / ON
They are one of the most common prepositions that can be used to indicate time or 

place: in, at and on.

IN
Meaning: in, inside, inside use (place): Used to indicate both indoors and outdoors. 

We use it to indicate that something is in one thing, in a closed place, or inside 

something physically. However, as shown in the examples, it is also used to indicate 

that you are in a geographical location.

AT
Meaning: in, to, at, near, playing use (place): Used in front of buildings like houses, 

airports, universities (to indicate that we are in) before "top" (top), "bottom" 

( bottom), "the end of" (the end of) to indicate events such as meetings, parties, 

concerts, sports, etc ..., behind "arrive" (come) when we refer to places other than 

cities or countries.

ON
Meaning: above, over something, playing use (place): It is placed in front of place 

names based as tables, floors, etc ..., when we refer to places of a room as a ceiling or 

wall and to indicate that someone is inside a public transport or on a floor of a building.
