Choose the correct particle for place and action.
The rule
で marks the place where an action takes place. に indicates a place of existence or a destination.
Examples
うちでべんきょうします。
I'm studying at home.
うちにねこがいます。
There's a cat at home.
Remember
- Action in a place: で. Existence or destination: often に.
- Choose the correct particle for place and action.
Common mistake
Use に for each location: for one activity, で is usually required.
