Prepositions with 'home.'

Prepositions with ‘home’.

How do we talk about the word 'home'. A lot of mistakes are made with this noun, because it is an exception. With verbs of movement, we don't use 'to'. Instead we use no preposition.

• I went home.
• She walks home every day.
• Marshall drives home after work.

With verbs that say where we are, or where an action happens, we use 'at'.

• She's at home.
• We stayed at home all day.
• Anthony loves to spend time at home during the weekends.

We can use 'from' in certain expressions: work from home, be away from home.

• He works from home on Fridays.
• She doesn't like being away from home for too long.
