UNIT

1 2 5 To/at/in/into

A We say go/come/travel (etc.) to a place or event. For example:

go to America

go to bed

take (somebody) to hospital

TO

return to Italy

go to the bank

come to my house

------ >

drive to the airport

go to a concert

be sent to prison

 

When are your friends returning to Italy? (not ‘returning in Italy’)

After the accident three people were taken to hospital.

In the same way we say: on my way to... / a journey to... / a trip to... / welcome to... etc.:

• Welcome to our country! (not ‘welcome in’) Compare to (for movement) and in/at (for position):

They are going to France,

but

They live in France.

Can you come to the party?

but

I’ll see you at the party.

BBeen to

We usually say ‘I’ve been to a place’:

I’ve been to Italy four times but I’ve never been to Rome.

Ann has never been to a football match in her life.

Jack has got some money. He has just been to the bank.

CGet and arrive

We say ‘get to a place’:

What time did they get to London / get to work / get to the party?

But we say ‘arrive in...’ or ‘arrive at...’ (not ‘arrive to’).

We say ‘arrive in a country or town/city’:

When did they arrive in Britain / arrive in London? For other places (buildings etc.) or events, we say ‘arrive at’:

What time did they arrive at the hotel / arrive at the party / arrive at work?

DHome

We do not say ‘to home’. We say go home / come home / get home / arrive home / on the way home etc. (no preposition):

I’m tired. Let’s go home, (not ‘go to home’)

I met Caroline on my way home.

But we say ‘be at home’, ‘stay at home’, ‘do something at home’ etc. See Units 73C and 124A.

E

Into

 

 

‘Go into...’, ‘get into...’ etc. = ‘enter’ (a room / a building / a car etc.):

i

 

• She got into the car and drove away.

INTO

 

• A bird flew into the kitchen through the window.------------------------------

I--- -------

 

We sometimes use in (instead of into):

 

 

• Don’t wait outside. Come in the house, (or Come into the house.)

 

 

Note that we say ‘enter a building / enter a room’ etc. (not ‘enter into’)

 

 

The opposite of into is out of:
